      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      good research environment, young and helpful staff, good benefits, good research network to connect other NGOs, research institute, think tanks, unversities and experts, as well as government.

      Cons

      so so work-life balance, trainig is not doing well, sometimes to close to the government instead of independent research. sometimes too many travels, which are not really necessary

      Fun, but they played it too safe

      Intern
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      -They have a fun, liberal and educated workforce -The office environment is very friendly and there is little gossip -WRI is well known is the climate circles - hence a fairly respectable place to work at -If you're in EMBARQ, you actually build things, not just write reports which no body reads!

      Cons

      -Unless you're in EMBARQ, where you actually build things, you will just write reports that no body reads! -They discuss, negotiate and create unnecessary hurdles towards even the most important and critical tasks at hand -Little space for new ideas and new initiatives. No matter how much you excel as an Intern and do things that others have not done who worked there for 20 years, they do not give you any recognition
