Asia Society reviews

Na work life balance, Do it yourself attitude

Terribly run and financially shaky organization with no path to keeping donors or funding future work. Hired scores of staff in 2022 then laid off much of that same staff in 2023, still hemorrhaging staff now. Salaries are ridiculously low for New York, vast majority are well below six figures annually. 0 black or Hispanic people on staff, and few Asian American staff (almost all staff are white or directly from Asia). 0 sentiment of equity or inclusion of staff who aren't white or Asian (e.g. not even an email to acknowledge AAPI Heritage or Hispanic Heritage Month). Uncomfortable and hostile work environment, staff overworked and underpaid. What should be a great organization is hobbled by out of touch, culturally and racially homogeneous leadership with no perspective.
