Pros

The company mission and customers are very worthy causes. The work life balance is pretty fair and accommodating, including ability to work from home without any issues. The new CEO seems to be the right guy.

Cons

The company is still struggling on innovation. Also, all the new management sees to believe the non-profit market is vastly larger than it really is. There is a lot of new Senior leadership that has not embraced the knowledge of proven "soldiers" to learn about the market and how to be a better partner to customers. Typical new leadership strategy, they are smarter than everyone else...

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.
