Review from Product Dept

I feel that the salary is fairly competitive for nonprofit organizations, and there are many added benefits like big discounts on bike share membership, a walk-bike benefit (in non-COVID-19 days), great healthcare coverage, and a very flexible work environment.

Review from Product Dept

Benefits are great and comprehensive, in addition to the necessities (health insurance, etc.), there are great benefits such as a Blue Bike membership, discounts through a third party, etc. However, pay is on the lower end, especially for junior employees.

Review from Product Dept

We have pretty good vacation benefits (for a nonprofit in the US)

Review from Product Dept

We have time off between Christmas and New Years for all employees and Summer Fridays (afternoons off during the months of July and August).

Review from Product Dept

The folks that I work with and our impact in the climate space.

Review from Product Dept

Our leadership cannot make decisions. They foolishly added a bureaucratic layer of VPs thinking that would help. Instead, it created another layer of management with no clear mandate. Then, they consolidated teams under a COO that many staff don't enjoy working with.
