Not competitive salary compared to other bay area companies.

Pros

Good work life balance. Workload is manageable most of the time except near the end of release.

Cons

Salary is not competitive. Bonus is always paid at 50% because of unsatisfactory company performance even though employee performance is above expectation.

BIG CAUTION - THINK HARD BEFORE JOINING

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.
