Pros

My direct management and team

Cons

BMC has zero strategy and an executive leadership team that can only make decisions in the best interest of them and their private equity owners, not the other 99.9% of employees. If your long term strategy changes every 6-12 months, then you don't have a strategy at all. BMC's idea of "growth" is just continually cutting costs, even if that means not giving the employees they decide to keep their annual increases to keep up with market and cost of living. Ayman, the CEO, is a poor communicator and a terrible leader, which the executive team follows. Quit acting like we are some sort of cutting edge company and can compete with the likes of Broadcom and ServiceNow. Let's stick with continuously improving and investing at what we are good at and quit trying to fix a problem line of business. If you can't fix it in over a decade, cut ties and move on.
