Pros

My coworkers were awesome! The pay was pretty good and the benefits too. I really like the area and it’s a great neighborhood. Some of the managers are really nice, knowledgeable leaders who care about their team.

Cons

But some of the managers need to go. They do not know what they’re doing. Luckily a couple of them have left. The Board is practically invisible. We never see them!

Pros

I like it here. People are friendly and the workload is very manageable.

Cons

Not a lot of turnover except in the bottom level positions. It's very hard to get any upward mobility.

Pros

-Really friendly atmosphere, lovely people -Everyone is happy to help you learn and succeed - My job, and most of the other entry level jobs are customer service (but it's the best, most enjoyable customer service job I've ever had) -Bosses are very accommodating to time off requests and personal needs - Most ever part-timer is paid the base pay of $16/hr since they raised their minimum wage last year - Very flexible when scheduling - So many opportunities to incorporate some individual talents or skills into the workplace (great for creative people, of which they have a ton)

Cons

-Since a majority of the workers have been with the library for so long (most have been there for +10 years), opportunity for advancement is really slim - Even with a degree, unless you're applying for a full-time position like Librarian, Library Specialist, Accountant, Full-time Clerk, etc. it's very hard to get more than 12 hours a week on your regular schedule. -Their are 16 hour a week jobs, but they have limited spots for them and those usually get hired internally since they come with benefits like vacation time and insurance
