Pros

Great teammates and customers. Contributing to nonprofits with mostly great missions. Mostly good direct managers.

Cons

Senior leadership too beholden to the stock market and short term thinking. This has led to nearly annual layoff cycles, significant offshoring of jobs, and a deteriorating relationship with customers.

Thank you for sharing your experience and for the many years you spent contributing to Blackbaud. We’re glad to hear that you valued your teammates, customers, and the opportunity to support nonprofits and missions that make a meaningful difference, as well as the positive relationships you had with many direct managers. We understand that perspectives can differ, particularly around leadership decisions and long-term direction, and we respect that this was your personal experience. As a company focused on social impact, we strive to balance the needs of our customers, employees, and the broader mission we serve, even though that balance may not always feel the same to everyone.
