How employees describe working at ASCAP
Service and the industry connections
Very highly respect work life balance
ASCAP has long been the good ol boys club. Efforts were made to change this but the VP of licensing is the main problem and his boss isn't involved at all. Lots of favoritism of young white males on mid-level promotions. Sexual harassers get promoted not fired (VPs). Whistle-blowers get blacklisted.
Collecting money for songwriters gives me a sense of purpose
Q&A With ASCAP Employees

What unique perks and benefits does ASCAP provide?
Majority in the licensing department work from home. This saves ASCAP money that goes back to songwriters. I work on the licensing side so I can't speak for the membership side.

Each office is different. Right now it's cubicle/office style, but the NYC office is looking to make a more open workspace.

It's fair. It could be more but it's definitely more than other "corporate offices."
