Pros

some of the employees are good people but just some of them. Greenpeace is located close to Kensington Market.

Cons

Not everybody is welcome to work there unless you think, eat, behave like the group. It's a totalitarianism. Be different and you will be dead. Many people think they ar eon the top of the world and are quite arrogant. The salary is low, the place is old, dirty and quite hippie (cheap hippie I would say). Management get huge salary though.

Pros

Working with such a diverse and passionate group of people is a pro on itself, I was working with a very highly educated team that had a strong understanding of the need for Greenpeace and to live in an environmentially friendly manner. The benifits and bonouses made hard targets achievable.

Cons

While fundraising you get to travel to many different places although this means very long working hours and having to deal with all weather conditions.
