Yelp

Since Yelp was founded, our values have remained the same. They are the guiding force for the many experiences that are created at Yelp. They provide the framework for who we hire, who we promote, and how we get things done.

Authenticity.
Tell the truth. Be straightforward and over-communicate.
No need to spin things.

Be tenacious.
Battle smart and fight ’til the end. Live for the underdog moments. Turn mistakes into opportunities to learn.

Play well with others.
Treat others with respect. Value diversity in viewpoints. Bring a positive attitude to the table.

Be unboring.
Never settle for standard. Creativity over conformity. Be your remarkable self.

Protect the source.
Community and consumers come first. If we don’t maintain consumer trust, we won’t have anything to offer local businesses.

AI Insights:

Yelp is the tech world's favorite chill job: great WLB, fully remote, and genuinely nice coworkers - if you don't mind your comp quietly shrinking while leadership discovers new ways to be both opaque and uninspiring. The product peaked sometime around when people still used Foursquare, and the stock agrees. It's a fantastic place to coast toward FIRE, as long as you're not in a hurry to go anywhere - literally or figuratively.
