Pros

Large organization with plenty of resources and name recognition.

Cons

Performative CEO travels the world and gathers funds but is unaware of the difficulties and challenges the staff experiences. Bad people’s management, communication and projects happen in silos, decision making is not transparent. Growth opportunities are inexistent other than applying for a new position in equal conditions than external applicants. No clear promotion paths, no chance of building a career other than managing people even if you have no interest or abilities to manage people. Their DEI efforts died when the new administration came into office to comply with their views. Corporate environment with NGO salary

Learned a lot about grazing and fence building. Good opportunities to get fire training.

Pros

"Come for the mission. Stay for the people." is something you will hear often when you start with TNC, and it's completely true. I work with some amazing people, and I take pride in the work that TNC is doing across the world. Even if my role is just "behind the scenes," I know I'm contributing to TNC's mission, and the organization makes you feel that way. The pay is competitive for the industry and the benefits are good. The option of working remotely (in my case), made this the perfect place to work.

Cons

I feel like the time-off policy could be better (but is probably pretty standard for US organizations). Sometimes the sheer size of the organization can be overwhelming and you can feel a little lost in the fray.
