Layoffs are coming to 80 Mimecast employees as the company’s growth remains below its pre-pandemic expectations.
The Mimecast layoffs represent 4% of the company’s 2,000-member workforce. CEO Peter Bauer made the announcement during the company’s latest earnings call on Wednesday.
The London-based company reported almost $130 million in quarterly revenue, up 17% year over year. In addition, it added 500 new customers, including 24 six-figure deals. But it wasn’t enough to keep everyone on staff, Mimecast executives determined.
