Pros

I've been here for almost a month full time now. So far it's been a great experience. At large, the organization has a lot of direction so I've enjoyed working on my team. I feel like our actions are intentional and we are working toward our climate goals. The benefits are solid, and I'm happy with my salary. I am paid over 20k more than I would have been making in a similar position at a smaller nonprofit (instead, I'm making closer to what I would be in the private sector). I'm really happy I'm able to make my desired salary while working at a nonprofit with a clear mission. There is also a lot of room for growth and career development, which my manager emphasized. As a young professional, it's a great place to start my career in environmental policy.

Cons

So far, the only thing that has come up is I was asked to relocate because they wanted me to work in person part time, however, I haven't actually needed to come in in practice. I would have preferred to hold off on moving and save a little money, but oh well. That is more of an issue with my manager than the org at large, since TNC lets a lot of people work remotely.

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.
