Pros

The mission and many of the staff

Cons

It has all the baggage of a toxic law firm environment without the pay. The “commitment” to diversity is pretty much just for show. When it comes down to it, the organization allows junior staff, especially POC, to be treated poorly and overworked. That was my experience, and I have heard the same from dozens of others. I would recommend that you look for a job elsewhere.

At Earthjustice, we work to ensure that we provide support, enrichment opportunities and professional development for Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) and individual staff. We acknowledge that this is particularly important for the experience of our BIPOC staff. We have invested a lot of tools, resources and time into ensuring we create a culture that is diverse, equitable and inclusive and will continue to do so with this feedback in mind.

Pros

I have never worked at a place quite like Earthjustice. It is, truly, the strongest example I know of doing good work well. So many organizations are striving to achieve what Earthjustice has already established as foundation. I couldn't be more proud to work here.

Cons

The single con that comes to mind is simply the rapid growth the organization has experienced. That itself isn't a con, but all of the things that come with that can be challenging. These challenges are more than mitigated by the truly collaborative and courageous spirit that is universal here, though. We will get there.

Pros

Earthjustice is one of the few nonprofits that practices what it preaches. It’s invested in its staff and treats them well. And they do good work on top of it. My hours are very manageable and my time off and benefits are great. I am proud and happy to work here.

Cons

I love working here. I don’t have anything negative to say.
