Agreed with all of the above. I’ll also add that a bunch of orgs do work that is basically useless, and it should not be assumed that just because an org seems “part of the community” that working there will be an effective way to do good—public callouts are costly, and community dynamics and knowledge can be hard to judge from the outside.
I wonder whether CEA or someone could fruitfully run (and share the results of) an anonymous survey of some suitably knowledgeable and diverse group of EA insiders, regarding their confidence in various “EA adjacent” orgs?
