Pros
I started the interview process at Mimecast right before COVID hit. My entire interview process was virtual. Once I received the job offer my only hesitation was the current state of the world given the pandemic. I knew I was well liked at my current job and had been there for several years. I was worried about starting a new job with so much uncertainty in the world. I spoke to the hiring manager at Mimecast about my concerns and he could not have been more reassuring. Not only did he reiterate how strong the business was, but also what an amazing culture they have. He set up time for me to meet with my new team virtually before I started and did everything he could to ease my nerves. I decided to follow my heart and take a leap of faith. It was the best decision I made. I have been here for 6 weeks now and I have never been happier. The people, the products and the leadership are incredible. I feel lucky to be part of a company with such thoughtful, kind and brilliant people. Despite on boarding virtually and starting as a remote employee, I have learned so much, made friends, and grown as a marketer in a such a short amount of time. I know this is just the beginning. Mimecast truly is a special place to work.
Cons
The only con I have is not knowing when we I will be able to go to the office and meet the team face to face. Mimecast truly cares about the safety and well being of all employees so even as things reopen I know we will not rush back to the office. Another example of how they put people first.
