The Nature Conservancy Environment Employee Reviews

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

The stated values are good (e.g., honesty, integrity beyond reproach), but they aren't always lived up to.

Shared commitment to mission and feeling of having impact.

People like to laugh and keep things light while also driving for success.

The acknowledgement that people think and work in different ways. Sometimes all those differences can be accommodated, sometimes not.

Most of the people who work for the organisation are very driven and committed to the mission.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Realistic workloads, improved people management, and less of a toady culture beholden to corporate donors.

Racial and gender based bias for career development opportunites! Senior management 100% supports affirmative action hiring rather than promoting based on experience, work ethic, or merit!

Change in leadership at the local level and having a process for staff feedback to higher ups
