Vantaggi

Great people and overall, the marketing team for such a large enterprise company is small. So, you have an incredible opportunity to work with a lot of different teams and pilot a lot of innovative programs - I didn't experience much duplication of efforts in marketing like in other more matrixed Tech companies. When I was hired, they were incredibly open to remote work, but then a new CMO, Nick Utton came on board who was very old-fashioned and remote work hires were discouraged and targeted for layoffs - he lasted 3 years and left. Luckily and remote work is embraced again.

Svantaggi

The constant layoffs were brutal. I've spent 20 + years in high tech but never experienced it as bad as there in my time at BMC from 2014 - 2017. It was extremely demoralizing. There occurred twice a year. Sometimes they were small and concentrated but the rumors and fear were exhausting. I finally had to leave because it was extremely stressful and depressing. Also, constant upper executive-level changes -

Vantaggi

They hardly ever fire anyone.

Svantaggi

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.
