Pros

Community, Salary, Benefits, care for employees, mental health, team atmosphere, conditions of working place and time, modern and smart people

Cons

fear of losing your job and therefore working out to burnout; when they say that you can discuss any work issues and problems, but in reality - all these conversations were then used against you.

Dear Sender, We are really sorry that you feel that way. As we see, you are a current employee. In this case, could you address this issue to your HR? The least we want here in Semrush is for people to feel unsafe. Thank you for your feedback. Hope, we will stay friends. Yours, Semrush Team

Pros

Each communication with the company is joyful. You are treated as a potential colleague, rather than a yet-another-candidate. And this is not just about being polite, it's a company lifestyle: from HR till your team.

Cons

Why can't they teach other companies how to act like here?))
