      generally good especially after Tercek took charge. But watch out for Chapter leadership running amuck

      Pros

      Tercek's leadership will take TNC to the next level. He has real focus on delivering global results. There can be a real sense of belonging to a "family" of people committed to conserving nature. There are so many dedicated, insightful delightful people who lead, and to learn from.

      Cons

      Decentralized chapters/state organizations are not in synch with global vision. Local personalities determine local outcomes with little regional/national oversight, inconsistent with global goals. Local trustee boards are not connected to the global vision.

      Good place to do good for the world

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great work-life balance. Good to work for a "cause". Staff are united by the underlying cause which makes for great team work and minimal "dead wood".

      Cons

      Conservationists by nature are adverse to change. It was hard to make much progress in advancing things there. Also, relying on fund-raising in this economy made it tough to reward employees.

      Used be a far better place to work

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good work being done on the ground in the field Good pay, benefits and opportunity for professional staff Greater emphasis on working with partners across the organization (as opposed to making "partners" do what TNC desires) Very smart people, mostly working effectively together

      Cons

      Heavy internal and external rhetoric/spin on global strategy through policy and partnerships (sexy) with minimal correlation to ROI relative to less ambitious (less sexy) but more tried and true investments and their relative and more readily measurable returns Generating money for conservation strategies broadly and mistakenly used as a surrogate for actual conservation heavily celebrated and crowed as wins
