Pros

The peacefulness and the ambiance of the library coupled with the mellow attitude of many patrons and workers created a sometimes calming work environment.

Cons

The workplace politics behind the scenes which, although never affected me, was visible enough to cause a stir among the other employees.

Pros

Great people Rich tradition Great community Learned some valuable skills Made great networking contacts My boss, specifically, was wonderful Flexible with hours

Cons

Had to park far away from my office. Because it's a college campus, there is very little parking, and where there is parking its usually not near the office. They have a shuttle service, though.
