Pros

Some of the best co-workers I have ever worked with, people are general friendly and helpful. This peoples intentions are good and that made working there bearable.

Cons

This organization suffers from some of the poorest management I’ve ever encountered. Promotions seem arbitrary, with individuals advancing without the necessary skills or qualifications. The company fails to care for its most valuable asset—its staff. Management is indecisive, and when decisions are finally made, no one takes responsibility or ownership. Some C-level executives lack the competence required for their roles. Compensation is well below market standards, and the benefits offered do not make up for the gap. There are no opportunities for growth or learning within the company, leaving little hope for professional development.

Pros

The people are united by the mission to address the climate crisis. The benefits in certain regions are good though in-office requirements are trending in new job requisitions.

Cons

Everything has been upended for the worse. There were at least 3 significant restructures in a very short timespan. There are no proper channels to provide feedback on poor people managers leaving direct reports to fend for themselves in a turbulent environment with conflicting direction. If you join in the next year at least, expect to spend most of your time putting out fires that should not have been started in the first place. It will take a lot of patience and evidence before employees start to regain faith in the work again. No one feels empowered to challenge decisions or the new corporate culture. The people running the show have just about run this place to the ground, and if your line manager has little influence in the organization, your team and mental health will bear the brunt unfortunately. I think many feel stuck and are just waiting for change to come.
