Why Yext Is a Next Gen Workplace
Yext is supported by three value pillars — learn fast, think big, and get stuff done — that have guided and grown the team to over 1,300 “Yexters” in offices around the world. To strengthen these pillars, Yext has established a culture rooted in diversity, innovation, open communication, and accessibility to leadership that allows Yexters to drive the direction of the business themselves. Internationally, Yext’s culture discourages employees from accepting the world as it is, but rather encourages them, regardless of their title or tenure, to share any ideas informed by their unique perspectives with executives — through company all-hands, employee resource groups, employee spotlight programs, and more. This way, Yexters understand from their first day that their insights and diversity are valued assets, critical to pushing Yext — and themselves — to maximum potential.
