Pros

Great environment in terms of colleagues, teams, and training. Free food and stocked fridge with sweets at all times. Schedule flexibility and hands off management structure.

Cons

Pay is on the lower end of the competitive payscale. Management does not always provide the best feedback our make the most out of team meetings.

Dear Sender, thank you for this review, and for your opinion. That’s really great you highly estimated our atmosphere, team spirit, and benefits. Regarding the Cons you mentioned above, we are always watching the market and taking feedback to ensure we offer competitive commissions, pay, and best in class benefits, and we will continue to do so. It’s also worth noting that new training practices are in the works and coming soon. Yours, Semrush Team

Pros

None, get ready to be micro managed and have unobtainable quotas.

Cons

Management is clueless on how to run a channel program. US team is run like a college frat with condescending management. No official PIP, they will invite you to a meeting with HR and fire you.

Dear Sender, We're sorry to hear that your experience with us didn't meet your expectations. We recognize that developing and scaling a successful channel program comes with challenges, which is why we invest in hiring experienced specialists for these roles. As with any performance-driven position, managers may ask questions, provide guidance, and regularly review progress to help teams stay aligned with business goals. We understand that these interactions can be perceived differently depending on individual experiences. We appreciate your perspective and wish you all the best in your future career. Yours, the Semrush Team
