Pros

Firm does unparalleled analytical work throughout the energy industry with a focus on long term environmental analysis. Brilliant coworkers, interesting topics of study, and overall strong culture and work-life balance. No better place to do challenging novel work and launch a career in energy.

Cons

Small firm with lean staff means functions like IT, HR, and accounting don't get much attention and consultants must handle independently. Reputation is strong in the relevant circles, but firm could use some additional marketing and operations support if it's going to continue to grow and build brand.

Pros

Great people to work with; learned a lot in general

Cons

The work can be stressful sometimes. Junior staff kind of need to figure it out for themselves since the structure if pretty flat and there isn't a "supervisor" responsible for the career development of junior staff.

Pros

-The projects E3 engages in have a significant positive impact on U.S. clean energy transition -E3 is a well-respected organization within the energy policy and modeling world -Co-workers are nice, smart and humble for the most part -Co-workers are all clearly passionate about and have clear vision for how to execute the clean energy transition -Good place to start after grad school to learn about the electricity grid -Work loads can be heavy, but expectation is that you work ~45-50 hrs/week. If you want to advance quickly, however, you will need to work more than that. -Field of renewable energy has lots of long-term growth potential

Cons

-Projects seem chronically underbid and understaffed, which puts strain on project managers and analysts to do far too much with too little time to keep within budget and timelines -Compensation structure heavily favors partners (typical of consulting firms, but bears mention), with lower level analysts salary significantly below what one might expect to earn in consulting or tech -Senior management can be chaotic or lacking, and still maintain a start up attitude despite company being public and approaching 100 employees -You'll spend a lot of time working on Excel
