Pros

Some of your peers. PTO (except if you leave you don't get paid out) Great pay if you are a VP or higher

Cons

Management at all levels has no idea what is happening in the market, with customers, and with prospects. Customers are leaving on a daily basis, prospects won't engage, and there really isn't anyone else to buy. Get out from behind the dashboards and broken metrics. Solutions are dated, regardless of SKY. When is the last time you rolled out something your R&D team created vs buying. Current CEO is on the same path as the former - buy, buy, buy. For tech company, comp is poor (so you are sold on the do-gooder mission)

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.
