Pros

Great place to start a career and grow with the company! Big enough to be stable and a market leader, but small enough to make a difference and have your voice heard. Amazing people, culture and work life balance. I've met lifelong friends whilst working here. Great annual President's Club trip for over achieving reps.

Cons

Product is slow to evolve compared to the competition. Salary is much lower than the industry average. However, you are working with Charity's, University's and not-for-profits, so keep that in mind. If money isn't everything to you, then this is a good place to spend your time. With that said, you will make decent money is you hit or exceed targets.

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.
