      The beginning of the end

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Was once a place to be proud of, with a great leader. Now comprised of used car salesman mentality leadership from little start-up BladeLogic. Fired or removed all managers and sales reps who understand complex customer relationship sales in favor of "buddies" from aggressive point sales backgrounds.

      Cons

      Benefits and pay continue to decline while the management style is now one of fear. Not a good way to retain top employees, which is why they're all leaving and going to CA and HP (who are actually experiencing sales growth). Don't let the skewed Wallstreet numbers fool you. The mainframe business continues to shield the company from the real numbers.

      Pros

      Great work life balance. Managers are generally respectful of your personal time and treat you like a professional. Expect to have to learn a lot of new products all the time without being micromanaged. Sales people arepretty good but expect to have to manage them a lot because they are very pushy.

      Cons

      Don't know yet. Pay and commission is on the industry low side.

      Risk / Reward at BMC

      Account manager (sales)
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Solid set of solutions and their new all in model is good for those seeking a lot of upside. The solutions are well integrated and solve real business problems.

      Cons

      Steep learning curve for a specialist moving into a client role. Ramp up time is very limited. If you don't have relationships at large accounts you will be challenged to succeed in the time frame they expect.
