The Account Executive role is a full-time, entry-level sales position with benefits and a base pay of approximately $35,000, plus commission.
Out of a commitment to make an impact on the Chicago community and to diversify its workforce, Yelp has committed to work with SCF in an effort to hire under- and unemployed Chicago or Cook County residents for its open Account Executive positions with potential for expanding the partnership in the future. “We are excited to be a part of the Chicago tech community and help create hundreds of new jobs in the city.” “Chicago is an ideal location for Yelp to grow our business while delivering the best online and mobile resources to help small businesses thrive and to connect consumers with great local businesses,” said Yelp co-founder and CEO Jeremy Stoppelman. “By partnering with Skills for Chicagoland’s Future, Yelp will get the talented workers it wants, and residents in neighborhoods all throughout Chicago will get the job opportunities they need. “Yelp is a globally-recognized company and their decision to open a new Chicago office, creating hundreds of new jobs, speaks to the talent we have today and the economic future we are building for tomorrow,” said Mayor Rahm Emanuel. In addition, the company has partnered with Skills for Chicagoland’s Future (SCF), a public-private partnership partially funded by the City of Chicago, to identify and recruit qualified, underemployed job seekers for its Chicago office. These jobs are in addition to the 300 positions that Yelp committed to hiring when it announced the opening of its Chicago office in August, 2014. We appreciate your contributions to the team and hope that you've found a role that is better aligned with your career goals.Rahm Emanuel and Yelp Co-founder and CEO Jeremy Stoppelman today opened Yelp’s new Chicago office and announced that the company plans to add an additional 100 jobs in the next 12 to 18 months. At the end of the day, our hope is that every person feels good about the work they're doing daily, and we understand that sales may not be for everyone. When they stick to what they learn during their training, most folks find that they can successfully connect with business owners to share the value and power of Yelp Advertising. Where we're different is in our training and curriculum and the ongoing coaching and development we provide. Cold-calling is a challenging task not just at Yelp but in any company. Something we heavily focus on when we talk to candidates who want to join the team is making sure we are as transparent and accurate as possible about the challenges that can be expected in sales. What you're describing doesn't sound like it's in line with our values.
It's unfortunate to learn that your time at Yelp didn't go as planned! We strive to create a supportive and inclusive work environment where every person can succeed. We sincerely appreciate your feedback and wish you the absolute best of luck in your next role!
All told, our compensation package is very competitive in all of our markets and is based on what our employees value most - total rewards. This includes stock incentives, cash bonuses, 401(k) matching, and employer-paid insurance to name a few. In addition, we strive to offer world-class benefits to our employees and focus on total compensation. We know this approach is not for everyone, but we've created a successful and supportive environment through this strategy. This sometimes includes things like barging calls to assist with closing deals or managers having team check-ins multiple times per day to ensure everyone is on track to achieve their goals. Regardless of whether we are in office or remote, our management style at Yelp takes a very hands-on approach. We're focused on putting our people (not offices) first by giving them greater flexibility to live where they want and work where they'll feel the most productive. The majority of Yelp employees work remotely and have the option to spend one or more days a week at one of our open offices if they live near one. Thank you for your feedback! We agree that the office culture at Yelp is unique and so special.
