Pros

Great people who work at BMC and a good portfolio of software to work with. Good balance of life and work. Get to solve interesting challenges for customers. The software is not tied to specific hardware or closed environments.

Cons

Middle management is always getting in the way. Software can be too complex or not very well integrated at first. It's a big company that still thinks its a small company at times, but lacks the innovation of a smaller firm. Too many useless acquisitions that go by the wayside before they are integrated with the existing offerings.

Pros

The company offers good pay and reasonable benefits. The work environment is generally stable because the company is financially healthy.

Cons

The Blade Logic management team took over the company and implemented a fear and intimidation culture. CEO seemed to let them do whatever they wanted to whomever they wanted.
