      Very smart people - but a lot of wasted energy!

      Pros

      Ashoka has a great mission, has some cutting edge ideas, and it is prestigious in the nonprofit world. There are a lot of young, committed idealists working there, which can be invigorating.

      Cons

      Over the years there has been a lot of staff turnover and an over-reliance on VISTA volunteers. The organization makes efforts to create group consensus and to use a democratic process, but it is, in fact, an autocracy. Communication between project areas and amongst management is not good, and there is a lack of strategic planning.

      Pros

      Inspiring staff make for great office discussions.

      Innovative, if not bizarre, structure of different staff teams.
