Pros

Really good collaboration and teamwork from within the CSM team.

Cons

Alot of stuff gets dumped onto CSM, and the attitude seems to be mostly that if anything has to do with a customer that the CSM should handle it. As a CSM, it felt like the company should serve the customers more instead of defining why they shouldn't help customers and understand what the solutions do and how to answer basic questions.

Pros

There is a clear mission that is cohesive among the suite of products that have relation to one another. There are a lot of different teams based on the vertical, yet all of the organizations who partner with BlackBaud share the same vision which makes working across teams fun and collaborative. I feel valued, and feel like when one of our partners wins, we also win and can share a great story together. I cannot say this about anywhere else I have worked. I feel the compensation and benefits are fair, and feel respected and supported by leadership. This is never in doubt. Mike is a great leader.

Cons

This is more relative to the current economic situation from 2022-current, but some teams are small yet mighty, and that can lend itself to wearing a lot of hats. I wouldn't necessarily call this a con per se, but it is something to be cognizant of if trying to see what it is like working here.
