Ashoka reviews

relatively low salaries, obscure career paths, high turnover make it hard to stay long-term with the organization.

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.
