Pros

Chill place BP office (but going down) work life balance could be great, but could depends on the specific team AI adoption is not nonsense :)

Cons

no vision for a lot of products absolutely lower pay grades than the Hungarian market, like 30% below or more, even worse at higher positions (but still local hungarian site pos) there is no product management specific ppl could have advantages due personal favorism questionable decisions (layoff for product, design, even lower management - you are wasting your valuable workforce - but upper management never affected :) )

Business Outlook

Pros

Pioneered the business of citation management, acquired Scout for AI intelligence in 2025. Good tech. - beautiful office in NYC, lunch provided daily and there's a nice rooftop patio. Decent comp.

Cons

Despite their long history in listings management space, Yext continues to suffer from bad management, poor customer service and continuous strategic changes. We have an uphill battle against the agentic ai revolution. For a public company, it's hard to understand why they have so many internal issues, it's not easy.
