Mayor Jim Lane Helps Yelp Celebrate the Opening of its New Scottsdale Office

Back in February we announced plans to open a new office in the Valley, and Monday, after five furious months of planning, painting and prepping, we finally moved into our new digs in Scottsdale.

Clearly the opening wouldn't be *official* unless we kicked it off with a late afternoon happy hour, complete with champagne, cupcakes and an epic balloon drop - to keep things classy.

Heck we even put on our Sunday best (despite the 105 temp outside) to welcome Scottsdale Mayor Jim Lane and Scottsdale Councilman Bob Littlefield.

The Arizona Republic came by to talk to Geoff Donaker (our COO), check out our new space, and even snap a few photos of our team hard at work. It was a pretty exciting day for us all the way around.

Major props to the entire team that worked tirelessly to make our new home in Scottsdale look, feel and smell like our digs in SF and NY. Now that we have more room to grow, we're looking to hire like crazy! If you're interested in learning more please check out our careers page
