Pros

Sierra Club has great benefits, from flexible hours to healthcare to parental leave. They also are largely distributed, and working remotely is great.

Cons

The current leadership team has toxic tendencies which trickle down and affect most workers. Upper leadership has an urgency culture and top down management approach that leaves most workers feeling confused and out of the loop. The Executive Director has been openly hostile with the union.

Pros

It was like this since the beginning

Cons

An executive who still works there kept asking certain people of color to create proposals he confirmed several times that he was very interested in hiring them for or giving them a contract. They spent hundreds of hours over years creating these propsals. Not only did he not pay them, he didn't even thank them.
