Great place to work, but...

Pros

The Conservancy undeniably has a great mission. The people are what make this organization an amazing place. The organization is large and geographically diverse, so there are lots of opportunities to move around and it is encouraged. Benefits are great.

Cons

New management are mostly from Goldman Sachs. Nothing wrong with that, but it can affect culture. Lots of large-scale goals that can be hard to achieve without effective priorities. Management makes decisions that seem flippant. TNC does not do change well and it moves very slowly.

Great mission. Disappointing culture.

Pros

Great mission. Smart, committed co-workers. Impress your friends and neighbors with a well-known name. Generally good opportunities for career growth and professional development.

Cons

Frequently changing (and sometimes confused) management priorities. Culture of over-commitment leads to burnout. Heavy-handed HR.
