Leadership team is amazing and direction tricked down effectively. The science team is very effective at getting the best results even if we had to work harder for short bursts. The feeling of accomplishment is great and shared by the whole team
Cons
The past is fast and the scale is tremendous; but this really isn’t a con per se when you’re dealing with species on the brink of extinction;)
excellent benefits. a lot of sick leave. vacation was standard 2 weeks/year. great position if you're starting out your career in biology. flexible schedule and occasional WFH was acceptable. really meaningful work.
Cons
it was growing fast while i was there and at times i felt under-valued and stressed out by the workload. a lot of travel was expected, and it can lead to burn out. promotions and moving up felt unattainable.
