Poor Choices Lead to Weak Executive Team - Product Marketing Manager BMC Software Employee Review

BMC's company culture seems to hinge on promoting unqualified internal people to save money and "see how it goes". The Marketing team in particular seems tied to this model, resulting in poor leadership that lacks experience, knowledge and management skills. Decisions seem to be made in a vacuum, creating conflicting, often illogical mandates that trickle down throughout the organization. In addition, a lack of transparency makes it almost impossible to understand what the long term strategy is for product management, while poor decision making keep lower level employees in the dark, with often conflicting goals.
