      If you're not for profit, you're not going to fit - Anonymous employee Blackbaud Employee Review

      Pros

      Great value in the work they do, lots of passionate people committed to providing the charity sector the very best they can, great office vibe, great office location (North Sydney). Most importantly it's personally rewarding work.

      Cons

      Poor leadership, very nepotistic (co-workers going on Christmas vacations together), lack of vision. The real damning factor is they do not recruit outside of the not-for-profit sector making the business so inbred that commercial expertise counts for very little. Senior directors of charities would consider working as a junior at Blackbaud a positive career move and consequently they come cheap.

      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.
