Pros

Great exposure to complex international compensation and benefits work. Many talented peers who are collaborative and genuinely care about doing the right thing. Opportunities to lead cross-regional projects and influence reward strategy.

Cons

Internal HR controls and governance lack consistency; processes can be overridden without proper oversight. Limited empathy and psychological safety when raising concerns — support often feels transactional rather than human. Management culture prioritises control over trust; feedback and development conversations are often promised but not delivered. International employees can feel isolated from leadership decisions and less visible than US-based peers.

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.
