BMC Software scored a 90 on the 2023 Corporate Equality Index (CEI) from the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), a political stakeholder group. By complying with the HRC’s controversial demands, BMC Software increases the risk of dividing employees, alienating customers and harming shareholders. The company covers transgender-related medical costs for its employees and their children and provides specific sexual orientation and gender identity-based benefits. It also uses sex and gender ideology criteria in employee recruitment, vendor selection, marketing, and philanthropic support. BMC Software uses its reputation, corporate funds, and political influence to support controversial sex and gender ideologies, organizations, and legislation. BMC does not provide viewpoint protections for its employees. However, the company has not publicly terminated business relationships due to views or beliefs and does not appear to discriminate against charitable organizations based on views or beliefs. For these reasons, BMC receives a High Risk rating.
