Pros

Had great office accommodation’s and a decent culture in past years. If you can outlive the impending exodus you could end up with a decent title.

Cons

The North American sales teams are led by longtime Mimecast employees who lack external sales experience. Each year, quotas become increasingly unrealistic. Leadership frequently reshuffles territories, segments, and sales strategies to create the illusion that targets are attainable. There is no structured training or sales enablement in place. Most veteran managers have fewer than three years of actual selling experience and lack the skills needed to navigate today’s market effectively. The expectation that the new products and acquisitions are going to change the game is an interesting story.

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.

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.
