Pros
The culture at Mimecast is fantastic, everyone is friendly and there is a great social scene. There is lots of great talent so it is good to work with people I respect and can learn from. I am in sales and the products are brilliant, we have a customer retention rate of 98% so it is nice to believe in the products I sell and deliver great customer experience. The company is growing so I feel there is lots of room to grow and develop both personally and in my career
Cons
The great culture stems from people being in the office... I think if you work at a large corporation that are really flexible meaning you can work from home a lot and get in when you want, this probably isn't the company for you. It is quite strict in terms of working hours. We are expected to be in by 8.30am and finish at 6pm. I like working from the office but it would be nice if they were a bit more flexible. Also the pension is not great, they only contribute 1%.
