Pros

people are very sweet, generous, kind. team players, definitely want to work together to make awesome stuff happen. and like many NGOs, Greenpeace attracts smart, ambitious people with a lot of heart.

Cons

the organization is such a mess. there's so much hierarchy and it's very hard to figure out who does what, who makes what decision, how your role fits into the bigger picture. makes it very hard to feel like your work is meaningful.

The work is amazing, especially if you are values-driven. Colleagues are smart, passionate, creative, and wonderful. Hours are flexible. Pay is decent for an NGO.

Cons

Poor management means staff are not treated according to the values of the organization. Staff burnout is not uncommon.
