Pros

WildAid has a very worthwhile mission and goal. It is unfortunate that an organization with such a wonderful goal is so poorly led and run.

Cons

Extremely high turnover - over 50% of staff in last 2 years, poor executive leadership, poor management of staff and key personnel, no opportunities for personal growth, no training, hardly ever any employee reviews, no development, no opportunities to take on additional growth due to power hungry, disrespectful, and controlling leadership. Employees never given credit for their work by executive management who is power hungry, only looking for people who can give money, and often exhibits extremely irrational, unexplainable behavior which in turn effects the entire organization

Pros

A very focused and capable team making a big difference. It has a start-up culture so if you can get projects moving, there are plenty of opportunities to take on a bigger role. Very creative and enterprising. Great opportunity to take on major projects. Strong performance is rewarded. Strong financial management. Very competitive compensation and benefits package.

Cons

Fast-paced environment and high expectations with a very lean team. Senior management provides guidance and the team is very cooperative but the people who fit best are self-starters and good communicators. Working across many time zones, languages and cultures can be a challenge.

Start up vibes. But that can also be a pro.
