Pros

Meaningful work in demand reduction with a proven track record for effectiveness on a global scale. If you enjoy very small teams, hard work, and can manage traveling, then WildAid might be great for you. Caveat: this will depend on which team you join. Great opportunity to meet celebrities and important organizations/institutions/businesses. You will be using every skill set in your tool belt from graphics design to public speaking. WildAid China is a wonderful team to work with.

Cons

Not enough relevant training and cross-team synchronization. Not enough emphasis on clear goals, expectations, KPIs, and parameters for what is considered good performance. Not enough credit is given when credit is due. The SF office culture needs help since management team is way too quiet and withdrawn. Certain roles do not have enough leadership input and teammate support.

Pros

A very focused and capable team making a big difference. It has a start-up culture so if you can get projects moving, there are plenty of opportunities to take on a bigger role. Very creative and enterprising. Great opportunity to take on major projects. Strong performance is rewarded. Strong financial management. Very competitive compensation and benefits package.

Cons

Fast-paced environment and high expectations with a very lean team. Senior management provides guidance and the team is very cooperative but the people who fit best are self-starters and good communicators. Working across many time zones, languages and cultures can be a challenge.
