Pluspunten

You'll put some money in your pocket. You'll like many of your coworkers (although few of them are happy). You'll like some of the customers (not many of them are happy either).

Minpunten

BMC will negatively impact your life. The workload will steadily increase with no end in sight. You will be pressured to work late nights and weekends. You will be asked to cover for people who quit. (A LOT of people quit. My group has turned-over 70% in the few years it's existed.) The constant administration and reporting to management is an unending nightmare. You will record every hour you work, every piece of electronic paper you produce, and every idea you have (in spite of the fact that your hours aren't billable). You are berated in front of your peers and your pay is docked if you fail to do so. Your peers will often take public credit for your work. (Two coworkers left me out of an engagement report on which I was the lead - publishing the work as solely their own - and then they begged for my help to present it when they got caught). Raises are a taboo subject. They aren't planned, they aren't discussed, and you won't get one. You may be singled-out and forced to relocate to an expensive city without assistance (HR is willfully ignorant of this practice). Bringing your dissatisfaction to management's attention is discouraged and falls of deaf ears (but your dissension will be noted and recorded). Your family will suffer. You will lose sleep, gain weight, and drink more alcohol than is healthy. That is the BMC way, as evidenced by every employee I've met. There is not one person in Sales who has a life that I envy.

Pluspunten

They hardly ever fire anyone.

Minpunten

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.
