Pros

-Good product backed by strong foundational technology -Lead by amazing CEO and CTO who very much care about their staff -Salary is higher compared to what is paid elsewhere and excellent benefits -Talented engineering crowd

Cons

-Wannabe Directors and Managers especially in Product and Engineering, walk around with ego and pride about their job title more than their ability to execute a task at hand. Most have no proven success in the past and they struggle to line-manage a small team of direct reports. -Talented folks in areas of poor leadership have moved elsewhere, leaving the place with employees who are just coasting and would not be compensated enough as much as they would be there -Strategy seems struggling and needs help -Bullying is common and is mostly brushed off as conflict between employees and the one who speak-up against is often termed as difficult to work with. Looping in boss’s boss doesn’t help as in most cases they both are friends from a pervious company so the complaint becomes invalid.

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.
