Ashoka reviews

Poor on-boarding, sink or swim, insufficient unrestricted funding to manage an organization. Leadership meetings where everyone usually agrees with CEO regardless of whether or not his ideas are realistic and the best idea or not. Passive aggressive behavior. Top leadership either completely hands off or micromanaging staff- neither work. Never know who is going to be axed next. Budgets can be changed at any time regardless of who approved. No security.

Ashoka is doing some of the best work in the world but the low staff salaries are abusive and unethical. Almost all staff who stay more than two years depend on spouses or parents for anything significant like having children, buying a house or saving for retirement. Non-wealthy staff are in poor mental health from always cutting corners, working second jobs, panicked they will never have families, putting themselves in dangerous situations and knowing that they are going to be struggling to make ends meet when they are older and vulnerable.
