Pros

Blackbaud has great people working together throughout the US. In addition to the fact that going to work was fun, it was rewarding to know that I had a hand in assisting thousands of non-profits achieve their missions. I was playing an active part in making the world a better place.

Cons

The biggest drawback for me was the inconsistency of the experience that one can have based on who their manager is. Some managers allowed for flexible work schedules, remote privileges, and were OK with children being present during working hours (when working remotely) Other managers could/would fire employees for trying to attain the same degree of flexibility-- even across the same job title.

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.
