Pros
You couldn't ask for a better group of people to work with although most of those with whom I worked are no longer working at BMC and the great majority of those people did not leave BMC voluntarily. The pay is competitive but the promises of potentially large bonuses are pretty much nonexistent. You will probably get a bonus but it won't be nearly what it should be. After all, they have to make sure the executives get their bonuses.
Cons
If you don't mind constantly looking over your shoulder, worried about just how safe your job really is, then BMC is the place for you. But be aware that BMC typically has not one, but two large layoffs each year. And they often have smaller, perhaps individual, layoffs in between. They will tell you how much they value your opinion and diversity of ideas but if you challenge the status quo or you dare to question one of The Chosen Ones, you will find yourself quickly out of favor and probably on your way out the door. They value opinions only as long as it validates management's opinions and ideas.
