Pros

Chance to contribute to the world's environment. Lovely people and work environment is mix. But according to me a place full of lively and same-minded people is the best place to work.

Cons

I work for Greenpeace India. May be due to low salary scale few recruitment are done just to fill the quota of employee strength. Need to develop the organization with more quality people who carry the idea of organization with themselves. People smoking and working for such organization put the standard down for such brand.
