Environmental Defense Fund reviews

- limited opportunities for growth for administrative and operations staff - prioritization of specific policy measures that can be seen as narrow or exclusive of diverse groups and demographics - high turnover rate

Teams and managers have analysis paralysis. Decisions just do not get made, no matter how time sensitive or important they are. They hide behind "consensus building" when it's really about avoiding blame. Working from home did not alleviate the office politics issues, it only exacerbated them. Like many nonprofits, the relationship between the organization and its employee base is extractive. The expectation is that, because the mission is important to you personally, you will be willing to deal with long hours and under market pay. There are known problem managers who the org protects. Overall, it is a very corporate environment.
