      Pros

      Some of the best people I've ever worked around. Both kind and impressive professional backgrounds. If you are highly interested in environmental issues, this is the place to be.

      Cons

      Difficult to make your way up if you are working as an administrator. If you are a scientist, economist, lawyer or environmental expert, than you will make out just fine. People who are just starting out will want to consider getting their masters, MBA and/or PhD before making their way up the ladder here.

      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.
