Reactionary, Revolving Door

Pros

BMC does have some good solutions that will deliver value to customers.

Cons

Too many internally competing products in certain groups. This is confusing to customers and sales will often pitch what delivers the biggest commission; not what is best for the customer. Terrible sales structure. Pressure for short term forecasting that simply inflates the pipeline with unqualified opportunities then no management support towards closure. Company does not value its employees, especially around long term development.
