      Don't work here

      Pros

      The people you work with are (for the most part) amazing, innovative, entrepreneurial individuals

      Cons

      -You will be overworked (ever hour you work overtime is an hour towards PTO so if you don't work overtime you don't get PTO) -It's impossible to move up unless you're hired in the entrepreneurial track AND are close to leadership (if you team is not close to leadership you will have trouble getting raises, promotions, or even hiring in your team) -You can innovate and make your own "team of teams" BUT unless it's an innovation that Bill and leadership loves, you will get not budgeting or fundraising help -1000000 meetings all the time -Compensation is laughable. Unless you are already wealthy, it will be hard to reach financial stability if you start from a junior position

      Kind & Caring Teammates, But Little Room For Career Development or Raises

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Wonderful group of colleagues who deeply care about leaving the planet better than they found it. Freedom to innovate.

      Cons

      Ashoka internal jargon muddies our message and makes it difficult to clearly explain what Ashoka is and does to 'outsiders,' but there is a sense that you cannot criticize the language so the problem persists. Also, junior staff earn significantly less than upper management despite their equally valuable contributions; big hierarchy & salary gap between VPs and younger emerging leaders. No 403b match program.

      Incredible people, as mentioned, you'll be working and interacting with the smartest, most international, most on-top-of-it colleagues

      Lack of direction, uncertainty, constantly shifting priorities
