Pros

Great people, industry-leader, solid benefits, average pay

Cons

Cog in the machine - Insight/ideas aren't taken seriously Lacking customer support Customers don't respond well to 3 year agreements If you are in sales, the Win2gther program is comical - take advantage of it while you can. With the program, just by "helping" with a deal, you receive quota relief and pay. There are so many reps hitting their numbers by riding the coat-tails of other reps. Commonly, your main competition will be internal. Blackbaud is double-paying on just about every single deal...and they wonder why they are on a hiring freeze.
