Pros

1) Strong product mind-set company with a solid product and very capable tech teams. 2) Great benefits for all locations (for example, in Spain, we have trusted PTO; paid private health insurance; Retribución Flexible to reduce taxes for food, transportation, education and daycare; Personal Budget for entertainment, team building budget, breakfast in office every day, different menu, internet allowance, and many, many more perks, flexible working hours) 3) In General, we have very kind co-workers with a lot of willingness to make things work. Great culture of partnership and collaboration among colleagues within teams 4) Global Mindset: The company has changed significantly during the last years for a more global mindset, globally distributed workforce and colleagues from all over the world.

Cons

Some times, the strong collaboration among coworkers happened more within Departments and Divisions, rather than between them. Definitely a point of improvement. Flexible working hours are fantastic, don't get me wrong, but some times afternoons can get a bit heavy due to meetings with different time-zones.

Pros

In Semrush I like that I can work with the new technologies and participate in the different projects related to online marketing. There are no strict rules related to the development processes and it is really up to members of the team to decide what technologies they are going to use and what approach to chose for the development itself. Also company provides opportunity to visit conferences and studying resources for the employes. I like to study via books, so I can just ask for any new book I would like to read and it will be ordered for me

Cons

I can't say any disadvantages of working here
