Pros

None. The company is going downhill. Save yourself and look elsewhere. Constant product issues.

Cons

- No career progression - Dictator Leadership - Boys club - Zero compassion for hard workers and/or loyal employees. There are so many changes happening in a bad way and management is blaming lower teams for lack of new business. - Over-hired and doing silent lay offs

Its An Amazing the Punch Line to start...

Pros

Free food, some free beer, and "swag" to entice employees.

Cons

A lot of smoke and mirrors when you walk in. Once you get into sales its high school mentality, a lot of clicks and clubs. Managers will walk right past you in the game room like they don't even know you. They operate in clicks and most upper management are people who worked together at other companies which brings favoritism. Since the return to work HR has been very un-responsive, and are unable to backfill necessary positions to keep the business afloat taxing us to work more with less. Many people are hired because they know someone in the company and not off of merit or experience.

Pros

-Good product -Benefits are average

Cons

-Company cares more about building their appearance on the outside rather than the inside, only cares about becoming the next big thing and doesn’t put any effort into caring about their employees -compare mimecast sales salaries to other companies, on average it’s about 30 almost 40% less, and on top of that they expect you to work longer hours (if you want to work your life away while getting paid pennies then this is 100% the perfect company for you) -terrible sales managers -all about politics -the only people given respect here are tenured employees, unless you’ve been there for 5+ years you’ll be given little to no respect and looked down upon constantly -no internal growth, whatever growth there is has nothing to do with performance and everything to do with politics, drink the cool-aid for a couple plus years and then maybe you can be considered for a promotion -tries to hide all of these cons with their “mimecast perks”, I would choose respect over free lunch any day IMO
