Pros

I've had a really great experience at Semrush. I feel like there are plenty of educational resources (because there's a lot to know with the product). Great work/life balance as we work in a hybrid model. I've managed to make some great friends during my time at Semrush. My experience has been mainly positive.

Cons

Sometimes poor or false communication from management on changes, initiatives and even compensation.
