Pros

This company has a fantastic mission and is doing big, incredible work to preserve our planet. I believe firmly in what they stand for, and think that in general, TNC is an unparalleled organization when it comes to environmental change.

Cons

The office I worked in had horrible leadership. Management was frequently at odds with one another, and this created a ripple effect of poor communication, people being on different pages constantly, and employees being left to fend for themselves and later being held responsible for issues that arose that were clearly the result of poor management and bad communication. Leadership was frequently unavailable, and employees were not held to the same standards. Favoritism and discrimination were very much part of the culture of this office specifically. In the bigger organization, I don't think this was as much of a problem, but that didn't have any positive impact on my own experience.

Pros

Some incredibly kind, smart, and passionate employees. Above average pay for a non-profit (could be better), fulfilling mission, great benefits (healthcare, PTO, 8% 401k match)

Cons

The higher up you go in the org, the worse it gets. Executive leadership is abysmal and they completely eroded trust in their ability to lead. Most of the C-suite needs to be replaced with people with higher EQ. Marketing in particular has an extremely toxic corporate culture that’s become immensely worse in the past 3-5 years. Layoffs were never a common occurrence, but in the last couple years, they happen with no rhyme or reason and those exact roles that were eliminated are seemingly reposted just mere weeks after folks are pushed out. Beware of what team you’re joining. It’s a mixed bag. Some amazing teams with incredible leadership, and some not.
