      Pros

      Flexible work from home opportunity, office space has lots of natural light, some stellar talent but not easy to find.

      Cons

      Company avoids reality of competition, doesn't understand cloud, leadership says one thing WRT revenue and earnings but does not translate to bonus, bonus is consistently paid out at rock bottom, complete disconnect between functional business units.

      Thank you for recognizing the amazing office space and environment we have in our locations. We work hard to make our work spaces bright and fun. and our flexibility in regards to work/life balance and work from home opportunities is a huge selling point to working for BMC. We are disappointed to hear that we are not meeting your expectations in regards to our bonus structure and your concerns about the competition. We appreciate your honest feedback and will look at ways to improve on this going forward.

      Pros

      They hardly ever fire anyone.

      Cons

      They hardly ever fire anyone. Comp plan is terrible. You get paid on Opportunities sources but there isn't any criteria written down on what makes a discovery call turn into an opportunity. Leading them to cherry-pick deals and choose if you get paid or not. They don't have product market fit. The entire new logo space didn't close anything last year. Getting placed in a good, high paying seat is all dependent upon nepotism. No clear path for growth. Constantly moving the goal post and changing promotion criteria. The promotion path leads you to a role that has historically not closed a deal and the role is a huge pay cut for some BDR's leading to high churn or career BDR's.
