Pros

- Prestige of the biggest environmental non-profit - Ability to learn from 160 marketers - Good travel and work/life benefits

Cons

- All marketers are working separately rather than as a team to accomplish major goals - Cold and unfriendly colleagues in Arlington headquarters, seems nicer in field - Terrible managers - As Tercek often says, "a dying dinosaur" of an organization that can't adapt well or quickly

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.
