Pros

There are some really brilliant people here and this is a great company if you want to keep your head down and just coast.

Cons

Management has no idea what's going on on the ground and are completely oblivious as to what needs to be done. The pay is pretty low for the market, and the work/life balance has gone from great to terrible. With the constant lay-offs and management's ability to never get anything done the Professional Services department here is sinking fast. It's best to abandon ship and get out now.

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.
