Pros

Great benefits package includes 4 weeks vacation, extremely liberal 403(b) employee match, great medical/dental coverage.

Cons

Environment tends to not be welcoming to outsiders (those not from library profession). Upper management tends to operate in a very "reactive" vs "proactive" manner. Experience, work ethic and proven skills don't seem to be taken into consideration regarding promotions, raises, etc.

Pros

Remote work, ok benefits, good colleagues here and there, senior leadership at least make the appearance of being accessible to everyone and seem like decent people

Cons

Below average pay. Small-ish but almost medium sized company territory where new leadership has come in to try and change things, but people that have been there for ages still find a way to make themselves more important. Little to no prospects for upward mobility in tech positions. Teams are highly siloed. A new supervisor can basically make your previous performance irrelevant. HR dismisses your input as "context."
