Pros

Culture-can be hard to find. However, in my Region it is there! Challenging-My job is hard. Even on good days it is hard but in a good kind of way. Self-growth- I have learned so much about myself and my own capabilities since I started with YES!

Cons

It has its flaws just like every job does!

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.
