Pros

Flexible working environment--hybrid was very nice. Benefits are good for the Charleston area but not at a national/global scale.

Cons

The products are antequated and rather than look at market share, product development, etc. for stagnation they automatically blame the sales force. They've moved to micro-management tools to track productivity. If you don't hit you're goal management automatically looks at you as the problem vs. any sort of outside factors.

Pros

Blackbaud is an outstanding place to work. The remote-first culture is a big bonus, but the people and the mission really make it what it is. They are well resourced and put a lot of care into making their employees feel seen, valued and respected. The leadership teams make it a priority to have healthly discourse and ensure accountability from all team members. I love it here!

Cons

Long hours but it is worth it because it is a great place to work!
