Pros

- Working with the non profit clientele and feeling like you have an impact on their mission - 401k program - Wageworks program to deduct cost of public transportation before taxes - 4 weeks PTO and volunteer for vacation time

Cons

- No inclusion for remote employees (none of the perks in house staff gets, employee appreciation days, etc) - Low pay generally with no regard to cost of living - Lack of diversity throughout the company and in marketing/advertising sent out from corporate - GMG management team has no transparency regarding changes and has essentially said in meetings “you can either do what we are doing, or you can leave” creating a bad culture and trust issues - Verbal offer promised room for growth - was informed 6 months after hire that all reviews happen in April but you have to have been with the company a year. So if you start anytime after April, you’re waiting until the year after next. - Closed down remote offices and integrated WeWorks program which lacks the equitable perks to the updated Charleston office and ruined any chance of an office culture for those outside of SC

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!
