Backstage Library Works Response

Thank you for sharing your views with us. The "borderline religious cult" comment is interesting. We are a multi-cultural group of people who first got started in Utah and have since branched out geographically. There is a predominant religion in Utah and we welcome all kinds of employees who work to generate high-quality, cost-effective professional services for the libraries, museums, archives, and other knowledge-based institutions we serve. Our employees have a strong work ethic whether in our Utah main headquarters or in our Bethlehem, PA office or scattered across different states in the US. This is a company where, at the end of the day, everyone can be proud of the work they're doing and the service they're providing - all of that effort impacts our customers' lives in a very positive way. I've always wanted to work at a company that has a positive impact for others and Backstage is that place. Our employees enjoy one of the best self-insurance plans available - the "Cadillac" of plans according to a health insurance broker who has reviewed our plans. Along with that, we offer paid holidays (Good Friday was one of them, a couple days before your post), 401k matching (with no vestment period), profit-sharing, flexible schedules, maternity & bereavement leave, and a health program geared towards improving mind and body. It's true that we do seek to be a profitable company. Being profitable helps keep us in business and looking for ways to continually meet the needs of our clients. Also, for those of you who may be reading this, please feel free to come schedule a visit with us (wearing masks, of course) to view our facilities and the level and care we seek to provide our employees. I respect the "change with the world" comment; we can always seek to do better. Just like all of us, our managers are not infallible. My hope is that we can continue to learn and approach situations with a better mindset and applicable experience.
