If the location was formerly Stock, you might as well assume you will be working for Stock, not BMC with all of BMC's professionalism and advancements within the industry. I've been in this industry for well over 20 years, and I've never seen such a company this poor operationally - and it's all Stock locations, not BMC. Stock refuses to relinquish their archaic and ineffective ways, and BMC leadership is not forcing it. Stock was always one of the weakest and worst companies in this region, and now I know why.
This company needs to decide if the political battle of cultures and identity are worth the reputation they are earning - BMC would be a great place to work with vast opportunities, Stock never was, and never would have been. It has become quite apparent that the former Stock executives on the board and in the Senior Executive team are more interested in destroying BMC, the company that acquired Stock, out of spite and stupidity, rather than learn from a successful company and build upon what they have been gifted.
If you are considering BMC that was an old Stock location, don't waste your time, you cannot win or affect positive change. They will not budge from Stock ways, which are backwards, counterproductive and weak, and only served to keep Stock as a non-competitive factor, a bankruptcy and buyout - yet these Stock people still don't get it.
Don't gamble with your own professional reputation by associating yourself with any BMC region that was formerly Stock.
