Relax and not much things to do. Employers are always nice to everyone in the team

I don't have any serious bad experiences so far. Everything looks good for now.

Pros

- flexible hours that are scheduled around your classes - great circulation team - quiet workspace - in the evenings, often downtime at the desk where you can (unofficially and sneakily) do some work (but don't get caught!) - they covered the cost of hours that I worked beyond my work study allotment, which most work study positions won't do

Cons

- midterm and finals season is MISERABLE because everyone's in the library much more and checking things in and out like mad - the team changes often since most of us are student workers who are graduating at different rates

An OK place to work.

Pros

Congenial atmosphere and pretty campus. Not a cutthroat culture and generally there is a good work/life balance. Good retirement and other benefits.

Cons

Huge bureaucracy. Change not always managed well. Salaries not great. More than a few staff and faculty have a sense of entitlement regarding their employment status.
