Pros

Great culture, flexibility, products keep getting better. Mimecast is in a good spot as our big competitor continues to slip. As a seller in the field, I have the ability to own my franchise and do what it takes to close business, develop partner relationships and work with the ecosystem partners. Have had a great experience with other sales reps and managers supporting me and working as a team.

Cons

Can be a little tough being outside from HQ in Lexington, but that's with any org. Also, some teams can be disjointed but this is improving with more collaboration among sales, marketing, development, etc.
