Pros
Nice office in DC (but no one goes in)
Cons
I know several people who have been in therapy for months to deal with the trauma of working here. Tons of politics and undercutting. Unclear how money is truly being spent (pledged money for a cause does not seem to go to the actual cause but to NWF itself). No accountability for leadership. One leader took off for 3 weeks and her away message was "I will delete all of my emails when I get back - if important, resend then." Terrible HR department who is not looking out for employees. Terrible leadership who randomly makes long-winded rambling speeches that other employees have to clean up afterwards. Do not expect to get promoted. Do expect to spend a lot of time circling around emails in NWF within the organization, without them going anywhere. Genuinely does not seem like NWF has made environmental impact: think to yourself, what have they done that has changed the game for the environment? Benefits are not open to everyone - the therapist on-staff gossips about staff to other staff in therapy sessions, and her sessions are always booked up. Interns rarely get hired. Lots of talk about being equitable and white guilt but organization does not promote kindness or have good retention of BIPOC staff. Extremely toxic culture - I would not recommend this organization to anyone, not even if you're trying to get your foot in the door, as it can come with years of professional baggage. Worked insane hours.
