Low Starting Pay But Annual Raises

Anonymous employee

CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Very structured work with guidelines for most everything you do. Lots of branch-level and system-wide committees to break up the monotony. Supportive work environment.

Cons

Very low starting pay for professional positions. Very limited ability for promotion to higher level Librarian positions. A Librarian I can only promote to a Librarian II which is Head of Children's. and I really don't want to be a Children's Librarian.

Bullying supervisors are rewarded with promotions

Business Outlook

Pros

Pension. Health insurance. Tuition refund.

Cons

They promote supervisors who have a track record of bullying to senior management positions. Management protects each other. Favoritism - they promote their favorites even if they are not the most qualified. Senior management NEVER works with the public. Managers never work at night - those of us who are required to work at night arrive at work the next morning like zombies.

Pros

Working in admin you have the weekends off. Most everyone in admin is lovely to work with. You get to help some with community activities.

Cons

Sometimes you do have to over extend beyond your work duties
