Summary
Yelp engineering culture is driven by our values: we're a cooperative team that values individual authenticity and encourages creative solutions to problems. All new engineers deploy working code their first week, and we strive to broaden individual impact with support from managers, mentors, and teams. At the end of the day, we're all about helping our users, growing as engineers, and having fun in a collaborative environment.
