Pros

The hiring process is long. EDF have an extensive network. The work they do is extremely influential, it is great to be part of that network now.

Cons

You could be placed in a project that might not be your first choice. Some projects are better managed than others.

Pros

A community of mission-driven staff who truly care about the planet and the causes that EDF advances. Extremely smart and kind staff. Incredible benefits, including a significant amount of company days off (summer Fridays, org shut-down for one week at the end of August, days off include Veteran's Day and Juneteenth); very generous benefits.

Cons

Out-of-touch top leadership, especially Executive Director, who pretends to be authentic and caring but isn't at all.
