Pros

Good technology and great customer base; excellent reputation in the marketplace. Good work environment and depending on your manager you can make things happen.

Cons

Culture is very reactive, whipsaw. Head of sales seems to not like BMC employees, preferring those from Blade or PTC. Very conservatively run organization with Finance having a large impact on that, very difficult to book orders. Back office is a mess.

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.
