I would think that a non-profit organization would try to keep its costs in check, especially since many nonprofits are kept afloat due to donors who want to be sure their money is being spent wisely.
According to the publicly available Form 990 (2015) for NYTW, two "key" employees of NYTW include: the Managing Director of NYTW who was paid $143,501 and the Artistic Director who was paid $157,327. I wonder if those making generous contributions are aware of these two salaries.
Meanwhile, they list salaries/other compensation of $2,434,054 and 292 employees employed during CY 2015. Taking a straight average, the 292 employees are paid $8,336 per year. Why would anyone want to live on that when they could make more money at McDonald's? |
