If the leaves are mushy I is probably over watered and you should check for root rot.

If the yellow is dry it might be under watered.

If it’s not close to a window try giving it more light.

It also might be over fertilized.

If it doesn’t have drainage I would put it in a better drainage pot.

From the way its yellowing id say a bit of overwatering. Plus possibly leading to a fungal. Id treat for a fungal with copper fungicide or 1:3 peroxide dilution. Every 3 days for 3x
