Salary and attendance calculations comply with the Labor Standards Act, making it one of the few lawful organizations in the arts administration field.
Pay is below average, though slightly better than in comparable organizations. The work is complex and the workload is heavy. Its semi-official nature often means having to clean up strange messes for government agencies, and when treated unfairly, employees cannot speak as freely as they could in a private organization. The administration department has a strong bureaucratic atmosphere. The budget is subject to oversight by the council and procurement laws; although it is a cultural organization, it is often required to procure based on the lowest price rather than evaluating proposals according to the most advantageous offer or creative content.
