Pros

The library staff and volunteer support group worked together to make the bookstore a succesful fund raiser to offset funding cutbacks. The overall attitude of employees was supportive and cooperative. Interaction between the employees in different departments was a very positive experience.

Cons

There are many, many people in management with the library. Every department has several different levels of management and it's very easy to be unaware of the hierarchy, though the expectation is that all in management should be acknowledged as such.

Pros

There are real and tangible opportunities to make a difference in people's lives. You can contribute every day to making someone's day better.

Cons

Library workers are extremely underpaid compared to other departments within the City of Memphis. This is not an exaggeration. All City of Memphis employee salaries are publicly available with a simple Google search.
