Pros

The PTO is great. After 8 years, you get 6 weeks time off. Many people I know who have been at other companies for much longer have much less PTO.

Cons

I never feel like I can actually USE the PTO and enjoy my time away. It feels like we operate in a consistent state of emergency, where things blow up at any second. I do not feel like we treat our customers well because as employees we are always being pushed on to keep revenue flowing and utilization up. I feel this attitude leaves a sour taste in our clients' mouths.

Pros

Decent pay, remote work flexibility, you get to work with some very talented folks.

Cons

Used to be proud to work for Blackbaud but that has all but disappeared in last 2 years. Poor and ineffective leadership, false transparency, frequent layoffs, bonuses based off of stock which has been tanking. It's a sinking ship. Avoid at all costs.
