Pros

Great co-workers and clients and offers full telecommuting and relatively little travel. Good health and 401k benefits.

Cons

No educational opportunities. Not even seminars or job related on-line classes. In order to keep up your job skills, you have to keep up your education or you cannot stay current. Then when you no longer have a job, your skills are outdated. This is also a high stress job since you manage concurrent clients and someone always has a big problem.

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.
