Pros

Only pros to the job is people you meet along the way, the benefits and the home office money.

Cons

Where to even start. First of all this is not a ‘family’ oriented job, they don’t care about sick kids having to pick them up from school none of it. Your managers will be little you to the point of telling you that you are trash and a waste of time. Territories you get depend if you do really good or not, if you get a pip there’s no saving you just give up that defeat because that next territory you get will be full of disconnected numbers or people that truly dislike Yelp. Started this job in a great mental state and the last 3 months, I was waking up wishing the computer didn’t work or the internet was out because of the anxiety I had about the micromanaging and being yelled at my business owners. KPIs are nearly impossible when you can’t get a human on a phone but their ‘magical’ saying is one call can change it all and control your controlables. Don’t get sucked into drinking the koolaid for this company, they don’t care about you they just want you to blackmail and force these small biz owners into using their products that don’t even work out of the 90 biz I got advertising while working here 1 actually had great success.. commission is so hard to reach when they constantly give a biz owner $300 upfront credits after you pitch or the go into ads looking themselves which then drops your commission down to a little crumb. I could go on for days if you read this far don’t take the offer.
