Two years into this job, I knew I would retire from The Conservancy. 27 years later, I'm on the cusp. I feel like I've made a real difference in my state and globally. Almost 100,000 acres conserved locally, and chances to work in South and Central America.
Cons
Expect to log some long hours when required. But we only have a 35 hour work week, so given the compensation, you expect to "do what it takes" to get the job done.

Some incredibly kind, smart, and passionate employees. Above average pay for a non-profit (could be better), fulfilling mission, great benefits (healthcare, PTO, 8% 401k match)
Cons
The higher up you go in the org, the worse it gets. Executive leadership is abysmal and they completely eroded trust in their ability to lead. Most of the C-suite needs to be replaced with people with higher EQ. Marketing in particular has an extremely toxic corporate culture that’s become immensely worse in the past 3-5 years. Layoffs were never a common occurrence, but in the last couple years, they happen with no rhyme or reason and those exact roles that were eliminated are seemingly reposted just mere weeks after folks are pushed out. Beware of what team you’re joining. It’s a mixed bag. Some amazing teams with incredible leadership, and some not.
