Pros
Today is my 4 year anniversary working at yell and in that time I have progressed from a sales consultant to a line manager. I can honestly say its the best place I have ever worked in terms of the atmosphere, the people, the environment and most importantly the job of selling our fantastic products to SME'S which in turn helps grow their business. There is no better feeling and certainly no better sales job. I would recommend to anyone
Cons
I honestly cant think of any

I've worked for Yell for almost 20 years and have seen lots of change in Yell's products, structure and ways of working. The one constant throughout is the passion of people of Yell to make a success of everything they're working on.
A good work/life balance, OK salaries, town centre location, great collegiate atmosphere.Cons
Tendancy to firefight at the expense of longer term gains
Advice to Management
Develop talent based on anticipated future need
