      Pros

      TNC's benefits are wonderful. You can tell the organization cares about its people from the generous benefits provided. The organization is a learning organization, which allows TNC to be flexible and also grow positively. TNC also supports employee growth and development, which has been a great change from previous employers. Leadership is always willing to listen to employees. The compensation strategy of the organization is fair and equitable. Working in the U.S., the typical hours here are 35 hours (note: some positions require more or less hours). The collaborative nature of TNC allows employees to work with and learn from colleagues around the world, as well as people from the communities that we work in. This enables TNC to make a difference with a deeper understanding of how people and nature thrive. I appreciate the DEIJ focus that TNC now has.

      Cons

      With such a large and matrixed global organization, it can be difficult to have a one-size fits all approach to certain things like SOPs or policies. Because the work that we do is so important, it can be difficult sometimes to not be worried about our impact outside of work. This can cause burnout. Having the additional personal leave days has been wonderful, but only if employees are willing to utilize them. This is the same for the flexible work arrangements.

      Great place to work for highly motivated people

      Pros

      Pretty much uniformly, everybody's bottom line at TNC is doing good conservation work, not money or ego or internal politics. That makes it a great place to work and ensures that the time and effort you put in as an individual will be magnified through the teams you intersect with.

      Cons

      Work:life balance can be an issue. Upper management is aware of this and trying to do something about it. So it's not because a huge workload is necessarily expected of everybody. Instead, it's because TNC is a group of people who can't say no... folks are so mission-driven that they take on too much. Formalized prioritization of goals/objectives/work is needed (from org-wide, which is happening, to the individual level, which still needs to happen), with an expectation of offloading work that is lower priority. Much easier said than done!
