Pros

The best thing about Ashoka is the people. They are extremely smart, motivated, and collaborative. The organization has many projects and teams so there is a wide range of options to find your place.

Cons

A lot of ideas go nowhere and are unrealistic from an execution standpoint. There needs to be better alignment of goals between Ashoka and its partners when launching initiatives.

Business Outlook

Pros

People are smart, ambitious, and super supportive. You can learn a ton from some of the top people in the field and get a lot of international experience. You'll never forget the high moments you have here, and not many other places can match the type of work you'll do here.

Cons

The hours can be long an unpredictable. Very inefficient, almost prideful of their inefficiency. As with most citizen sector orgs (non-profits), resources are limited. This means pay is very little and it can take days to get something done that's completed in seconds at organizations with resources. New grads tend to get stuck with a lot of grunt work.
