Pros

Great company, great benefits, honest work that is for the greater good of people and nature.

Cons

Individual chapters or programs can vary in their treatment of employees. Expect to be doing a lot of grunt work and menial tasks if you are hired for anything except a high level position. Best to get hired in as a director right from the start, otherwise, opportunities for advancement are only possible if you are willing to relocate.

Pros

Some incredibly kind, smart, and passionate employees. Above average pay for a non-profit (could be better), fulfilling mission, great benefits (healthcare, PTO, 8% 401k match)

Cons

The higher up you go in the org, the worse it gets. Executive leadership is abysmal and they completely eroded trust in their ability to lead. Most of the C-suite needs to be replaced with people with higher EQ. Marketing in particular has an extremely toxic corporate culture that’s become immensely worse in the past 3-5 years. Layoffs were never a common occurrence, but in the last couple years, they happen with no rhyme or reason and those exact roles that were eliminated are seemingly reposted just mere weeks after folks are pushed out. Beware of what team you’re joining. It’s a mixed bag. Some amazing teams with incredible leadership, and some not.
