Pros

I worked at BMC for almost 3 years. Company went through a substantial transformation, going from public to private. Great benefits and salary quite competitive.

Cons

It is always a challenge when a company goes from publicly traded to privately held. Investors tend to cut corners to maximize their profit, which it is probably understandable.

Pros

They hardly ever fire anyone.

Cons

They hardly ever fire anyone. Comp plan is terrible. You get paid on Opportunities sources but there isn't any criteria written down on what makes a discovery call turn into an opportunity. Leading them to cherry-pick deals and choose if you get paid or not. They don't have product market fit. The entire new logo space didn't close anything last year. Getting placed in a good, high paying seat is all dependent upon nepotism. No clear path for growth. Constantly moving the goal post and changing promotion criteria. The promotion path leads you to a role that has historically not closed a deal and the role is a huge pay cut for some BDR's leading to high churn or career BDR's.
