Pros

Incredibly smart and caring colleagues working on important issues Benefits package (particularly PTO) is unmatched in this sector

Cons

A lot of change (systems, operations, structure) with not enough thought put into change management. Transparency around decision-making, at leadership and department-levels, needs to be improved.

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.
