Our employees’ well-being is our priority. Our flexible benefits are designed to support you as an entire person, from physical and mental health to professional development, financial planning, family care, and more.
For your well-being
Your health is vital. We offer private medical insurance through Vitality, which provides coverage for your hospital inpatient and outpatient medical needs. Yelp covers 100% of your employee-only premium with the Countrywide hospital option.
Our healthcare cash plan through Health Shield allows you to get money back on many day-to-day medical/well-being expenses you may have, such as optical, dental, physiotherapy, and chiropody. Yelp covers 100% of your employee-only premium on the Level 1 plan.
Self-care looks different for everyone. Yelp offers a monthly wellness reimbursement benefit that goes beyond what’s typical. It’s not just gym memberships or club fees; you can be reimbursed for exercise bikes, smartwatches and fitness trackers, ski or scuba equipment, meditation courses, weight loss meal programmes, and much more.
For your finances
We’re proud of the work we do at Yelp, so it only makes sense that you have the opportunity to share in the company’s success. With our Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP), you can purchase Yelp stock at a 15% discount by setting aside 1-15% of your paycheck during the six-month purchase period
Save for retirement with a Workplace Pension Scheme administered by The People's Pension. Yelp uses your pensionable earnings to calculate your monthly standard 5% contribution. Yelp will then make a 3% employer contribution to your scheme. The minimum contribution from Yelp is £3,000 annually, if you contribute at least 5% of your salary and meet other plan requirements.
Yelp offers income protection coverage, at no cost, should you become disabled due to a non-work-related illness or injury.
Who doesn’t love to save? Our corporate discounts benefit lets you tap into hundreds of incredible discounts and programmes at your favorite restaurants, gyms, and daycare centres.
Yelp offers a cycle to work scheme through CycleScheme that allows employees to save 25-39% on the cost of a bike and/or cycling accessories to use for any work-related transportation needs.
For your work life
Enjoy company-paid holidays, paid holiday, paid sick days, a paid annual floating holiday, and other paid time off plans to allow you to rest, recharge, relax, and take care of personal needs.
We provide a monthly reimbursement to cover things like Wi-Fi, phone costs, and other work-related expenses to help you make your work-from-home space more productive.
For your mental health
WeCare is a 24/7 online General Practitioner, mental health support service, get-fit programme, and more. All at no cost to you. Employees can talk to a UK-based GP through a video call from the comfort of their home, avoiding the need to visit a doctor’s surgery.
For your family
