Pros

working outdoors in beautiful locations provided housing full time and food while on a crew free weekends in wilderness land meant hiking, swimming, exploring training for tasks if your education is in the field then you have great references, networks, and opportunities for growth within ACE recently expanded, now have three offices working on a fourth. was a western US org and now it's national

Cons

some members believed the work hard/ party hard motto, which distracted them from the task at hand

Pros

This review is as full time central staff. If considering a seasonal position with a gov't agency through ACE, they are great! Flexible schedule Cool work Incredible team

Cons

Management is completely disconnected from work force. They're concerned with accolades and looking like they care, but will not actually listen or communicate with employees HR director is actively hostile and does not care about people 100% business focused despite being a non profit Values and mission are nothing more than words on a website
