Pros

Great culture with lots of bright young colleagues gives the company a nice startup feel, the beer fridge helps too :) The technology is very interesting to work on and you'll learn a lot on the job. The office is in a great central location with lots of lunch options.

Cons

Having been here over a year now I honestly can't think of any cons. The company is growing fast so hopefully the culture can be maintained.

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.
