Pros

Salary was good as was bonuses, benefits and stock units. Flexible about working from home

Cons

I worked for nearly ten years for a company that was acquired by BMC. Despite the red carpet treatment on arrival, with CEO's message that we were not acquired for the technology but for the people, our team were either dropped for no good reason after a year or forced to quit. You are constantly forced to endure "training" videos on ethics, which tend to focus on non-US companies or individuals being unethical. I now know that despite being told it was my role that was being made redundant, someone else is now doing my role. How ethical is that? If you still work there.... watch your back!

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.
