Benefits package is good. Good brand. Work from home option if you are having good relationship with your manager. Flexi timings. Be careful your manager may ask you about this at the end of your appriasal timing :-)

Cons

- BMC is a very good brand, here managers are spoiling it, because of their in ability. - No professional growth. - Pathetic product with lots quality issues. Code is very pathetic :-( - Incompenent management. - You will always works on resolving customer issues. Finally, will become professional in sustenance. - Very less salary. - Even before beta release product features never works. - Infrastructure is very bad. You will need to cry a lot to get something to do your job. - Some became managers and architects because they are with the company for many years due to their inability of move out. - Mostly bug fixes. In their books all highly talent people are those who are good in fixing bugs. - No HR. You manager is your HR.. - Senior management never cares about your concerns. - Most of your salary is tied up with performance. Your manager skrew it up even if you perform good by giving some wrong feed backs. - Never Never raise a complaint on your manager, if you want, better you come out from the company.
