Pros

- Office food and amenities (coffee bar, good catered lunch, free beer, rooftop lounge etc.) - awesome people to work alongside, make friends of all walks of life - good entry level experience - legacy name for resume experience - sales incentives throughout the year - good health insurance/ work life balance

Cons

- "frat bro" culture - your given territory and segment size will LARGELY determine your actual earnings and performance - territory alignment will also dictate the products you pitch/ meetings booked - Extremely disorganized leadership teams - lots of unfulfilled promises ex. travel opportunities, promotion timelines and expectations, in office mandates (RTO), career progression - a "line" to get promoted and move up in the ranks - low base pay - constant turnover - pointless meetings that could've been an email - Disorganized tech stack and systems - SalesForce database, the primary driver of your territory is AWFUL, out of date and often causes territory issues, AE alignment etc. - Extreme push of AI use for numerous tasks that don't need the use of AI - multiple executives, sr. directors and managers abruptly leave

Pros

Great office, catered lunch daily. Great benefits, 4 weeks PTO to start plus paid holidays, floating holidays, sick time. Culture is flexible, vibrants, friendly people.

Cons

Frequent changed and pivoting but senior leadership listens to employees which is good.

Pros

The people (some) Struggling to find more

Cons

Mimecast used to be a great place to work with good tech and strong values. The culture is toxic and incredibly unhealthy. They will promote you without an increase in pay. Recognition is a joke. The CEO is actively running the company into the ground. Sales leadership repeatedly meddles into and destroys sales opportunities and turns around to blame the sales team. The product is a mess with no strategy. only thing that's clear is the direction in which it is going, down.
