Decent starter - Recensione dipendente - Project Coordinator presso NatureServe

Management is flexible and sensitive to employee needs

Hard to find reliable team members

Dedicated staff try their best to make a difference.

NatureServe, an organization plagued by out-of-touch leadership, consistently deflects blame rather than taking ownership of its shortcomings. A recent example is the board's push for increased fiscal responsibility, resulting in the resignations of both the COO and CEO. Subsequently, the organization laid off 5% of its staff, during which the acting CEO and then the new CEO both went on vacation. This tone-deaf response during a critical period demonstrates a lack of concern for employees seeking guidance from senior leadership. Working at NatureServe is not recommended. The organization lacks transparency and is a breeding ground for nepotism, embodying the worst traits of government contractors. They exploit their mission-driven focus to underpay employees and falsely portray a positive work environment, while demanding excessive hours to deliver over-promised projects on shoestring budgets.
