Pros

* Decent pay for degree-holding librarians

Cons

* Administration was unresponsive to complaints of sexual harassment surrounding my gender and sexuality * Administration was unresponsive to diversity and inclusion suggestions, unless they wanted to implement it a year later and take all the credit for it * Management asked if I was a hypochondriac when I was filing FMLA paperwork for a serious medical condition * Management flat out stated I wouldn’t be promoted if I continued to miss work to care for my disabled partner * Every time I interviewed for a promotion, I asked for feedback and was told I wasn’t a good “culture fit” * Almost zero diversity in management - no openly queer managers except me, and one Black manager, one Hispanic manager, and that was it * I repeatedly watched other management hire White employees over similarly qualified Black employees
