Pros

CDP North America is an excellent place to work. Although it’s a global organisation, it can still feel quite close knit. And there is surprisingly limited bureaucracy and hoops to jump through. The NA office is based in NYC and the people there are friendly and always happy to pause and have a quick chat.

Cons

It’s a NGO so obviously the pay isn’t as high as other sectors. But to be fair it’s also not as low as I’ve seen from other organisations.

Pros

The people are united by the mission to address the climate crisis. The benefits in certain regions are good though in-office requirements are trending in new job requisitions.

Cons

Everything has been upended for the worse. There were at least 3 significant restructures in a very short timespan. There are no proper channels to provide feedback on poor people managers leaving direct reports to fend for themselves in a turbulent environment with conflicting direction. If you join in the next year at least, expect to spend most of your time putting out fires that should not have been started in the first place. It will take a lot of patience and evidence before employees start to regain faith in the work again. No one feels empowered to challenge decisions or the new corporate culture. The people running the show have just about run this place to the ground, and if your line manager has little influence in the organization, your team and mental health will bear the brunt unfortunately. I think many feel stuck and are just waiting for change to come.
