Pros

Very outcome oriented, challenging yet also supportive. Cares about you as a person as well. Competitive culture, but in a good way. People want to do well and get the support they need to do well.

Cons

No clear path for advancement usually; mapping a career path over the long term is not obvious. Kinda big, so feels a bit like you can get lost. Making progress on diversity, but needs to do more.

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.
