Pros

Was great 2 years ago

Cons

My job was "eliminated" in March, laying off several highly productive team members in this process. The rationale was that this role was eliminated in an effort to focus sales upmarket. Fast forward 2 months, now they are rehiring for the same role. Very convenient that there's been an influx of positive reviews lately.

Dear Sender, We’re sorry you had a negative experience with us. It was never our intention to leave you feeling this way. Regarding the situation you mentioned, the explanation provided to you was accurate. However, you should know that after some time, we promoted some of the colleagues who left to work with the SMB segment, which has a strict team size limit. This created a need to find replacements for those positions. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors. Yours, the Semrush Team

Pros

The product is an industry leader, making it exciting to work on. The teams are filled with incredibly smart, creative, and collaborative people. Benefits and remote flexibility are solid, and there are good opportunities to learn SEO and digital marketing deeply.

Cons

The work culture can occasionally lean toward working harder than playing hard especially as the company scales.
