Pros

Nice people Short Commute Nice gym Hopeful the New CEO can turn things on its head and clear half of the heavy, useless Sr Mgmt structure

Cons

Don't worry about doing your work. Others will do it for you. Mgmt is a joke; they do not exist Salaries are abyssmal compared to other companies. Many times managers earn the same as their staff or sometimes less Company thinks they are cutting edge but in reality it takes 4 months to get a project approved only to be stopped 6 more times. Resourcing is an issue in this company There is no career path whatsoever. You join, you never evolve, they don't know what to do with you or their departments

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.
