Pros

Overall, I had a great experience working at BMC. You get a great overview about various different aspects of enterprise IT, working with many great people along the way that gives you a great foundation about working with large complex IT environments.

Cons

The downside would be the direction of the market and the company. In my view, the company is having difficulty remaining relevant in many conversations and is not keeping up with the rapid development in the industry.

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.
