Pros

Beautiful building. Large collection. Active library with plenty going on. Breaks are appropriately given out.

Cons

Employees who commute must pay to park. There is a very strict hierarchical structure, even those who are at professional levels don't always get treated as such, especially if they're new. Very little room to plan or implement programming period. they are very set in their ways. Professional MLS librarians are stuck shelving for hours and hours.

Intermittent position gives good opportunity to get foot in the door with library work.

Large organization means there is a lot of competition even internally for any job postings.
