      Pros

      Decent benefits, good vacation package, working hours standard for the industry, bonus pay, housing discount but see below.

      Cons

      To much micro managing from those in positions that do not directly impact your performance. Many higher level positions held by individuals with no apparent experience or subject matter expertise. Constant moving processes and delays trying to get information on current procedures. Bonus pay based on unattainable or arbitary set goals such as budgets that do not align with current contracts. Budgets that do not reflect actual operation expenses. Constant revolving corporate employees leaving a gap as to whom to contact.

      Worst CFO in the country

      Pros

      Free soda, peanuts and fruit. Glorious fruit which is perfect for all of the older women who work and Yes. I suggest YES adds more prunes. The monthly cake, that celebrates everyone’s birthday for the month is nice.

      Cons

      Everything else. Chris Stopps is the worst CFO in the world. She enjoys drama and causes drama!!!! Please retire and do anything else.

      Do the positives outweigh the negatives?

      Pros

      There are a lot of great teams, along with a ton of fantastic leasers. The office is gorgeous; there is an event committee that does its best to keep everybody engaged and organize activities. We have strong health benefits and there is a friendly culture in the office. There is also a lot of room for advancement - people are always moving around and positions are open frequently. The recruiting team is really great and promoting internal hires and helping existing team members find their fit.

      Cons

      Free snacks and food trucks just aren't enough anymore. After working through a pandemic and seeing what other companies offer their employees, YES has a lot of work to do. The Home Office team has been begging for a work from home/hybrid schedule since office operations resumed during COVID. Just last week it was announced that they were offering WFH flexibility... unfortunately, that comes with a ton of stipulations. Only some departments are eligible, it may only be one day a week (not Mondays, Wednesdays or Fridays, though), and they will not be providing any materials/technology to set up a successful home office environment. The company proved during COVID that they could contribute meaningfully while working from home, yet the executes still expect to see a full office every day. If you truly don't trust your employees to work from home, maybe you've hired the wrong people. While there are some decent soft benefits that come with working for YES, they do not pay their office team(s) adequately. There are TVs plastered around the office showing how lucrative the company is and how much they increase housing costs for their residents, yet they refuse to pay their employees a salary that aligns with the market. Finally, the executives are out of touch with the company. C-suite execs make tone-deaf comments at company functions with 100s of people and are full of false promises. As a company whose 2022 goal is to focus on culture, they've done little to show for it.
