Pros

Good salary. Lots of social benefits. Nice, comfortable office. Management is open to dialogue. Interesting product.

Cons

Lots of work. Product data and algorithms are shady. Depending on a team, you could have a hard time trying to communicate and solve problems. Even management sometimes couldn't impact team decisions to fire someone

Dear Sender, Thank you for the feedback and such a high score for Semrush. It is true that the teams, especially in the Product and Development departments, can influence decisions within the Company. We attribute it to the atmosphere of freedom that we talk about so often. And yes, there is a lot of work here. But work hard–play hard is also perfectly valid for Semrush. We strive to keep work-life balance for our employees. We appreciate your opinion. It will be useful for potential candidates. Yours, Semrush Team
