Does non-profit mean they should be paid less for doing the same work?

If a non-profit hires a janitor, should they pay the janitor less?



view as:

A lot of people seem to believe that, which is completely nonsensical.

As someone who runs a tiny hyper-local non profit (we take in a few thousand $s a year), running a non profit requires as much, if not more, work than running a for profit business.

One reason why we have such awful non profits is that they don’t pay enough to compete for the best talent.


Fun fact: Rolex is a non-profit.

What is the point you are implying?
