BMC Software Employer Reviews

Typical workday consists of ad-hoc reports, previously assigned reporting projects or presentations, and data extraction for analysis.

It used to be one of the best places to work at. Not so much anymore.
Too many layoffs - at least one every year to get rid of %5 or more. So many talented people lost. Terrible atmosphere. Middle management does what it can but has little flexibility. Layoff can hit anyone whatever his/her performance if not at the right spot at the layoff time. This – more... is insane.
Still there are some great projects to work on with good people on and customers are faithful. – less

Wonderful experience working with folks at all levels to develop and release Cloud Programs.

I enjoyed every day because there was a challenge to improve - your customer, yourself and BMC

Over the years I worked there I had plenty of opportunity for advancement and was able to offer opportunities to the people that worked for me. It is a great place to stretch your wings, make your own future and make friendships.

I worked hard and enjoyed myself.

Learned a great deal about thriving in an environment with different cultures.

Performed various duties while at BMC - some required lots of project travel and some had me working remote from home. Managed/coordinated consulting projects, performed business analysis for an extensive implementation project and also performed a variety of other consulting engagements. Hardest part of the job was the regular business travel lifestyle.

Enjoyable, fast paced environment with good benefits with hard working, bright individuals.

I was in carge of translate document and to comunicate with customer overseas. Our day was start a five in the morning and ending arond four in the afternoon; becouse we have the time difference betwen Usa and overses. In charge to place order for clients with speck,and also answer to any question from customers.
we use Oracle Program for all orders. – more... Etc.... – less

it would be a good company if the management took the time to worry about the people who work in the field,six years of employment and I watched everybody take pay cuts but managers.

Everyday I give my all to ensure that my work is the best possible quality that it can be. I go into every job with an open mind, knowing that there is the possibility to learn something new everyday. I have always maintained a healthy relationship with my co-workers, because without having a healthy working environment it is hard to achieve quality – more... work. The hardest part of any job I have had is managing my co-workers, mainly because I was usually younger than they are, but this challenge only made my skills stronger and taught me how to deal with all types of situations that people may put you in. The most enjoyable part of the job for me is seeing the finished product, seeing a project from start to finish is very rewarding because you get to see the final product. – less

Helped organize training sessions for global audience. I learned to understand what my boss really needs to be successful - and do it! Politics are bad everywhere and especially here. My co-workers were nice. The hardest part of the job was to balance work/home life. The most enjoyable part of the job was traveling around the world.

An excellent company for which to work, despite very long hours. The physical environment is excellent and the employees at all levels, (entry level to Sr. Management) are sharp, bright, professional and it makes it easy to work long days.

Loved working with the people here. Very knowledgeable and hardworking. Very goal driven toward our numbers. All teams pulled together.

This was the most excelent atmosphere to work in. I still have lasting friendships with some of the co-workers I had here some still employed and others now employed elsewhere. My day to day activities include Analyze and reconcile Oracle in the Global Contract Management Department according to contracts associated with Distributed System products – more... and ensure contract terms are met and reflect in the Oracle database system.
Research back-up documents in Documentum to verify product reports with the most recent contracts, credit memos, and purchase orders to ensure products are accurately entered in Oracle.
Train new contractors on the process of reconciliation.
Research documents between the project team and business unit to ensure that all legal and contractual matters are addressed efficiently and promptly.
Enforce revenue compliance involving discounts with invoice request forms, purchase orders, and support contracts as backup documents.
Prepare and distribute information regarding contract status, compliance, and modifications. Reconcile and document changes that are made to Oracle while also adding hard copies of new contracts to files that are not printed.
Provide account administration through research and analysis of customer information such as company, account, address, and contact data information for customers in Corporate Repository Database.
Research extensively, to validate data through the Internet using Hoover’s, Google, USPS, Dunn & Bradstreet and various other web applications.
Process customer data merges at the company and account levels for data integrity and to remove data duplication in Siebel, Oracle, and One3.
Define, integrate, cleanse, & synchronize over 100,000 items of data in the corporate repository to maintain data integrity. – less

Was ERP Oracle Infrastructure PM for 18 months. Areas of improvement:, Quickly changing plans without proper communication which led to much confusion, Nework Engineering - need to understand the processes and who the real owners are, Security - Need to be less of an enforcement group and more of a supporter and partner, Management slowness in bringing – more... in a key contractor or extending a person, PM Office - if a PM is working full time that exetnds beyond a year, he/she needs their own office to increase work efficiences (e.g., unlanned meetings, conference rooms, white biard and etc.) and In IT there is an old girls network that control many of the promotions and who gets laid off. Some of these females add no value to BMC and should be laid off and not replaced which would save BMC much money. – less

nice dept/ great people but i need ajob where i can move around more, too much sitting for long periods of time

Management is all about face time. They believe if you aren't seen, you aren't working. This led to very unproductive behaviors for some of my co-workers such as online playing games all day and then staying in the office until 9PM. Forced to work weekends during quarter end. HR was very unresponsive to issues that were brought up. Management seemed – more... to be very tight knit and not interactive with the peons that worked for them. – less

Designed and implemented territory plans and marketing campaigns targeting new potential customers through 100% lead development.

I was told by a VP of HR I had "changed and didn't seem happy any more" 5 weeks after my mother died.

VP's that gossip and undermine employees. Cliques. Shameful behavior and lack of confidentiality. Inconsistent treatment of employees.
