Pros

Great Company and Team. Thorough onboarding process. Compensation met expectations, and I'm genuinely happy to be contributing to what we're building together.

Cons

The Adobe Acquisition made for some chaotic moments but management has been very transparent and got everyone through the process. I would say Semrush is above average to excellent for a mid-size SaaS company.

Pros

I'm only a month in, but the onboarding experience has been great! I've never had such a thorough onboarding experience before. My manager and director are experienced in enterprise BDR work and offer really great insights even beyond just coaching. They put data in front of us to show what success looks like. The team is always willing to answer questions and help out. The compensation is really competitive with the ability to make 6 figures with commissions. Semrush also just got acquired by Adobe, so there is a lot of excitement around that and what it will mean for the team. The office has catered lunch on Wednesdays, but they also stock snacks, so you never have to be hungry in the office.

Cons

New team and vertical means that they are building everything from the ground up, including onboarding motions for Enterprise BDRs specifically. Not necessarily
