Pros

You'll find a fast-paced, driven and dynamic (and of course vegan) work environment, a collaborative and team-oriented culture, and inspiring colleagues who are supportive, effective, and genuinely committed to alleviating suffering in the world. PETA maximizes people's skill sets, offers myriad growth and learning opportunities at every career level, and has a good benefits package too. This org and its devoted staff change the world for animals every single day! An excellent place to work and I'm honored to have spent so many years at PETA.

Cons

Requires sincere commitment but all good work should, so that's not a con in my book. I don't have anything else to add here!

Pros

Coworkers are hard working, intelligent, dedicated animal advocates. I truly believed everyone was trying their best for to save the animals from horrific abuse. It was nice to be among people who understood what animals are put through and who were giving their all to help them.

Cons

Challenging work environment with no concern for work/life balance. Low pay for emotionally difficult work. It felt very hierarchical. A lot of questionable practices, such as requiring employees to watch graphic abuse imagery as part of onboarding and begging employees for monthly donations to deduct from their salaries. Some campaign strategies felt unrealistic or lacking in evidence, so it could feel like we were wasting time and resources on projects that were not likely to have much pay off for the animals.
