Pros

They pay you, they have a good product.

Cons

If you're white you will be marginalized by the CEO as part of his social justice political grandstanding. They celebrate mediocrity and discourage non-conformity - both in political expression and approach to your work. They will manage you out of the business for expressing freedom of speech. No diversity of political leaning at Mimecast.

Thank you for taking the time to write your review. We were disappointed to read your comments, as we are proud of the supportive and inclusive culture that we have created here at Mimecast. Our leadership is committed to fostering an environment that diverse, equitable and inclusive. We make every effort to incorporate and represent all perspectives, and we ask our fellow Mimecasters to demonstrate allyship to underrepresented groups in the workplace. For those employees who are interested in playing a part in these conversations, we have created several employee resource groups (ERGs) that are open to all employees and encourage Mimecasters to share their unique voices. It is up to all of us to learn together, model the Mimecast Way, and strive to create a shared experience that supports all Mimecasters.

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.
