Pros

Hot Industry, valuable product, was awesome when we had a building to go to.

Cons

Work loads are piled on, the best people leave for more money, Mimecast claims diversity but is far from it. Sales is 90% under 30, white guys, they also make more $$ than most people. Acquisitions have been poorly integrated into our existing products (AT1), Engineering issues are causing our clients to leave. We are understaffed and can't keep up.

Mimecast Response
5y
Thank you for providing this feedback and being transparent and open with your responses. We value these reviews and use the feedback to make improvements throughout our processes across all departments. These are definitely unprecedented times and although we do miss our wonderful facilities to work from daily, we have implemented effective remote work capabilities that adjusted accordingly. As for diversity initiatives, these are a work in progress and with the recent hire of our Global Manager of Diversity and Inclusion, we feel we are making quite a bit of progress in those important areas. We realize we do have improvements to be made and the work we are completing will be a huge accomplishment for the company. On the hiring front, we are continuing to hire in many key areas of the company to balance workloads and we continue to implement career initiatives as part of our professional development for employees. Our hope is with all of these changes, Mimecast will continue to be a best place to work for years to come and we are excited you continue to be a valuable Mimecaster! Thank you for the time you spent writing this review.

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.
