Pros

In the ten years that I have known Earth Day Network, I can’t imagine a more hard-charging, creative, and always current organization that has the welcome mat rolled out for those with an entrepreneurial spirit, especially those with passion for the environment. It is a great place to build one’s career – management is always open to new ideas and chances are if they are good they will be implemented. There is also a high degree of strategic freedom within a framework to do what is best for your team. Actually, it is fun to work there and at times can even get zany around big events so hold onto your hat and be prepared to pitch in.

Cons

Cannot think of too many.

Advice for Interns

Pros

The organization here is awful (see bellow) But, uniquely for interns, this may be seen as an advantage. Consider what projects / skillset you wish to develop while here, assign yourself those projects, and question any project you don’t wish to do. It’s often busywork. But, if proactive, you can tailor this experience to be your personal benefits.

Cons

The only thing EDN has to offer in leverage during partnerships and donors is reach and networking, but there is barely anything to show for it. Organized information for key campaigns such as education don’t exist. The data that is circulated is really poorly managed and has no central hub. Entire spreadsheets gathered over months and years (largely by unpaid interns) are wasted because there isn’t a standard way to manage/access them across departments. For Interns, specifically - HR did not offer an obvious path for interns to take charge of projects that would actually help them. As a result, myself and other interns have somewhat felt that after completing various busywork, their time was wasted. They did not personally benefit/learn, or even seen their work utilized in a greater context because poor organization led to canceled and conflicting projects. Interns aren’t compensated enough money for metro travel expenses, despite being promised that those expenses would be covered. Interns were assigned to the room with roaring conditioner and no windows, even when a quarter of the office being heated / lit up for noone.

Pros

I had a great experience working there. I was mentored by the senior staff and the President and they gave me hard and interesting work to do. I felt like a made a real contribution. They are helping me with my career.

Cons

None that I can think of. Everyone worked together in a real team. We pulled off a great event
