      Great people...poor leadership

      Sales manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great people, great technology, cares about the customer

      Cons

      Senior leadership lacks experience. Very much a Russian, European culture. Decisions are not data-driven. HR caters to the leader they support, not the front line employees

      Negative attitude towards sales team

      Account manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great Product and recognition in the market. Top-level support

      Cons

      The sales team is a target of constant experiments from management on how to squeeze more money while providing less and less resources. A recent example being the deprivation of new leads/registrations and focus on your book of business, which is completely unfair as everyone has a totally different number of signed clients, therefore your opportunities here in the sales dept are massively limited. It used to be a much better team, but it has degenerated into something horrible.

      Dear Sender, Thank you for the feedback. Our company is constantly running all types of experiments—we change work models, reports, forms. The Sales Team is not an exception. Constant change is a significant part of our culture, and we understand it might not be suitable for everyone. That’s why we always take negative feedback constructively. Apart from constant changes, we strive for efficiency, and good work will always pay well. The commission rate is quite high—we constantly check the market’s expectations, and make sure that we pay according to that. We are truly sorry that you had a negative experience with us, and we wish you all the best in your future endeavors. Yours, Semrush Team

      Underpaid, poor management

      Sales executive
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Remote work is enjoyable, easy to access other employers and the coworkers are all close.

      Cons

      Paid the bare minimum and the pay structure is inconsistent each month with changes being brought to us. Over worked and underpaid. This company has a very high turnover rate because no one is happy with what they are paid and it is unlivable. Management does not seem to care when you express your needs for better pay and continues to find loop holes.
