Great Example of Fakequity - Part-Time Worker Skokie Public Library Employee Review

This library is such a lovely warm environment and working there was a pleasure

Not enough hours given as part time employee

Some departments have great staff teams The library has an excellent collection of books A wonderful community comes in to use of library services If you have a good manager, this could potentially be a great place to retire from

All of the administrators and 90% management team (for various reasons) are just not good at their jobs Dressing down staff was common; there aren't a lot of things that they do to uplift staff who do good work. When I worked here, I did not know any full-time staff who did not suffer from depression. This is an extremely top-down library in terms of decisions, and the biggest issue with this is that the people making the decisions are deeply out of touch with many of the data points that would help them make effective decisions. Taxpayer money is spent in a way that is deeply inefficient and would anger many in the community if they knew. Management is not good with sensitive information, I would periodically find confidential employee files on shared printers
