Pros

brand name recognition on your resume, just dont stick around for too long!

Cons

this is a place that is reaching the end of its life. not very ethical business practices. the good employees all left for something better, so you are stuck with the mediocre people that just scrape by.

Pros

Very fun company to work for. There's a great atmosphere amongst the employees. Engineering and Sales both. I really enjoy everyone I've met so far. Pay is also very competitive and Yelp also offered stock options. Something that has more than tripled in value over the past year.

Cons

I'm hard pressed to really think of anything as an Engineer at Yelp, but if I had to say it'd be that the company still acts like a startup. Personally, I enjoy that aspect. We move quick and that can cause problems from time to time. Nothing too difficult to navigate though.
