Unprofessional outfit - agree with previous review - Anonymous employee 2Degrees Investing Initiative Employee Review

The 2° Investing Initiative is an organization that is truly making waves in the climate NGO space. As a pioneer of high-quality research on aligning the financial sector with climate goals, they have had a huge impact on the narrative of this field and have been able to directly influence government policies and regulation in Europe. (Working with them genuinely feels like you're with the smartest guys in the room.) As a result, working at 2°ii will give you unparalleled exposure to governments, central banks, key industry players and other think tanks for a non-profit of its size, allowing you to make a real impact on the global transition to a low-carbon economy - and build an impressive network of industry contacts at the same time. Uncharacteristically for a non-profit organization of its size, its employees also have a strong sense of job security, as the leaders of the organization have been exceptionally good at securing long-term funding with major funders, and paying employees higher than average salaries for this industry. Career development is also highly encouraged and you have the flexibility to undertake projects and advance your career in a direction that interests you... plus the international offices give you the option to travel around and work from either NYC, Paris, London, or Berlin as you like! And unlike most jobs of its type in the U.S., a genuinely healthy work-life balance is also encouraged, thanks to its European culture and mindset when it comes to both work and life! But above all, the best part about working at 2°ii is the people – it may be a small organization but everyone who works here is really welcoming, sociable and fun and no doubt your colleagues will end up becoming close friends. Generally speaking, 2°ii is a fantastic place for work for someone who cares about climate change, who gets excited at the idea of working in a fast-paced, growing and dynamic non-profit organization, with ample opportunities to take the lead and develop one's career, and who is a creative, outside-the-box thinker who doesn’t like the idea of being confined to the same set of daily responsibilities in a large organization where your work can sometimes lose all meaning and impact.

Any fast-growing company of its size is inevitably going to come with some organizational growing pains... but if you’re a flexible type who’s able to roll with the punches, it’s actually a great opportunity to carve out a meaningful career trajectory for yourself and progress at a rate a large and well-established employer could never allow you to.

getting exposure to lots of green related investing issues.
