Executive Compensation

Anyone else see the stocks that all the execs got? It's crazy that they are laying people off in different BUs, changing the variable comp goal posts, and bringing in McKenzie over and over and they still get that bonus. Are we all just happy with a job and .9 VC instead of demanding better? Feels like they are asking for unions with this BS.

Want to bet the vast majority of cuts will come from among us?

Senior management will remain untouched, as usual. For every executive who keeps their job, dozens of us will have to go. They'll go by the numbers to make their selections, which means the better you are, and therefore the more you're paid, the higher your chances of being cut. This company is slowly cannibalizing itself to pay for grandiose decisions that never made business sense.


Peel Board Lays Off 300 Teachers Amid Enrollment Drop

The Peel District School Board issued layoff notices. More than 300 teachers received these notices for next September. Declining student enrollment is the primary reason for the cuts. The board's student population has decreased by nearly 10,000 in eight years. An Ontario Education Minister recently appointed a supervisor to the board.

Blackbaud’s leadership has failed plainly and repeatedly

Years of poor mergers, awful stock performance, and a massive data breach have left the company weaker, less trusted, and increasingly irrelevant. Instead of owning these failures and investing in real product improvement, leadership has done almost the opposite.

The products have stagnated. Customers know it. That’s why they’re leaving. And rather than fixing what’s broken, leadership’s answer has been blunt-force cost cutting and pushing a ~30% SPI increase onto customers who already don’t see the value. It’s not strategy — it’s desperation.

While customers churn and employees are asked to do more with less, Mike and the executive team have quietly extracted hundreds of millions of dollars in compensation from the company. That money didn’t go into innovation, security, or customer success. It went into executive pockets.

The most insulting part is the attitude. When concerns are raised, the response isn’t accountability or respect its dismissal, contempt, and sometimes outright laughter. Leadership hits paydirt while employees hit the breadline, and we’re told this is “good for the business.”

It isn’t. It’s short-term financial engineering at the expense of long-term trust.

Shame on the leadership team for hollowing out a company that once mattered. And shame on anyone still carrying water for decisions that have clearly failed customers, employees, and shareholders alike.

This didn’t have to be the outcome. It was a choice.

Well said, @ad+1keshgf86.


Layoff number for the rest of 2026

Has the Q1 round of layoffs wrapped up? Are we expecting another round at the end of Q2? What’s the full-year target for layoffs, and how many have already been cut so far? I only saw media mention 1,000 in January, but no numbers for March or the rest of the year. Any clarity?

Could layoffs turn out to be worse than we expect?

I've been doom scrolling and reading all articles on Oracle and LE - and there are MANY right now - and I'm starting to worry that we're not being told everything and when cuts start, it's going to be much worse than we expect. LE is trying to do too many things at once and we might be the ones having to pay the price of it.

Have they ever backfilled a critical role? Ever?

My team is down to nothing. One more loss and the whole thing collapses. Two roles were highly specialized. Never backfilled, never even discussed. Workload's a mess, skills are missing, and no one cares. Okay, fine, cut if you must. But could there at least be some thought behind it? Or maybe fix things afterward for once?
