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.

Pros

WildAid is a lightweight organization that achieves impressive, fast results. It's exciting to work in such a fast-paced organization that delivers tangible, visible results on important issues. Not the slightest bit mundane. Ideal for an independent worker that thrives in finding creative solutions under high pressure. Frequent opportunities to work with celebrities and major media organizations. Results are very visible.

Cons

Internal communications between leadership and staff need improvement. Employee benefits should be better. Needs more interaction between staff at different offices.

Pros

I've worked for WildAid for just over a year now, first as a consultant, then as staff. During that time the senior management team at WildAid have given me a great opportunity, and the flexibility and free rein to get quite creative in my own way by running wildlife conservation media campaigns under the WildAid banner here in Hong Kong, as well as some wildlife trade investigations too. And the best thing is that support and expert advice is never far away when I need it. This organisation has been making some real impact of late, and as a consequence it is a really optimistic environment to work in, which can in turn boost your own morale!

Cons

The time difference can hamper communications occasionally, but that's not WildAid's fault. It would be the same in any organisation that has offices spanning the globe.
