Multnomah County Library Reviews

After 12 years and many management transitions it is obvious that it is not about what you know, but who you know in the organization. The union is in bed with management, and if your an older employee they will give you more reason to leave than to stay. There is no career path even if you get a degree in most cases. A job here is only for the elite and that is made apparent everyday especially if you are a lower class employee.

Admin and management completely suck. Union does absolutely nothing for you. No security at most library branches. No support for employees working in dangerous neighborhoods. Low pay. Terrible benefits. Very few opportunities for growth. Those who care are paid the same as those who don't. Union representation means you basically can't get fired.
