We recognize life happens at work and away from it, which is why we hire great people and trust them to live our values ❤️ At Yelp, we believe autonomy promotes productivity and success for every person, and flexibility means our folks can build a rewarding career while also enjoying an enriching life outside of work. “Yelp supports the balance between my personal and professional lives by offering access to resources that allow me to juggle being a single mom and a full-time employee. Working from home offered flexibility to me as a single mom, as my schedule can be chaotic at times. Yelp offered me the relief I was searching for and so much more.” - Destine, Senior Collector Learn more about Destine’s #FiveStarCareer story on our blog.

Say hello to Geena, a Partner Account Executive on our Channel Sales team! After being an avid Yelp user for nearly 10 years, Geena began her #FiveStarCareer journey in August 2022. Previously, she had spent years working in Public Relations and Marketing on both the Brand and Agency sides. When looking back on her move to sales, she says, “I knew that jumping over to the sales side of the business would be challenging; however, my journey has felt more like an extension of my skill set rather than a full-on career transition. I implement what I’ve learned in past roles to connect with agency owners and lean on my Yelp team for guidance and support. I’m excited about my long-term journey and to be a part of a growing division at Yelp.” Learn more about Geena’s journey at Yelp on our blog.
