Pros

Bonus, if you hit the KPI goals.

Cons

I was firstly contacted via am external recruiter, who promised me several benefits, such as flexible work hours and working from home, which was not the case. The first day of employment, the told us that there was a lack of communication between the recruitment agency and them, so everything the recruitment told us was a lie. The training consists on long videos (some of them more than two hours), with little chance of practicing the real work or shadowing with other team members. Once you start the delivering the job, it is really hard to hit the KPIs, since you barely know how to do the job. Avoid this company in Costa Rica at all cost.

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.
