Pros

Blackbaud used to be a wonderful tech company to work for -- many of the team members are nice people who care about their work and clients.

Cons

CEO, COO and others all came from same huge white-guy-driven banking firm and have turned what was formerly a very cool tech company doing good work, into a very traditional, old-fashioned, boring corporation. They refer to engineers as the "Software Factory." Do not waste your time if you're looking for a remote opp or even a flexible situation. If hired, expect to move to CHS (expensive plus lots of traffic) and sit in the new open-concept HQ all day long like it's the 1950's. (Bring your headphones if you expect to concentrate!)
