Pros

BMC is a fast moving company that has product leaders across the portfolio. It's solid products make selling and developing interest much easier. The staff seems to be getting younger as they look for more motivated and dedicated inviduals for the role.

Cons

Still relatively new organization of business development and changes are the norm.

Pros

The salaries are higher than industry averages, there is some flexibility in the work schedule and there are ample donuts to be had.

Cons

Management lacks the wisdom to see structural problems and places blame on external agencies. Large amounts of abuse towards employees, as well as vulnerable clients. Neither management or employees respect the position of trust within the community that they have been given.

Pros

Good people for the most part

Cons

During the recent all hands meeting the #1 question asked was "when do we expect to have the the merit Increasesalary freeze lifted?". The answer - "when the market demands it!" In other words, regardless of how much productivity and revenue are being realized even after all the downsizing; BMC will lift the freeze only when it's been determined that we're loosing employees to the competition due to compensation issues. What kind of short sidedness is this? Why not stay ahead of the curve instead of waiting for good people to leave. Very, very telling in my opinion.
