Pros

There is no question that working at Greenwich Library has perks. Excellent salary and benefits. The collection might be the best public library collection on the East Coast for a community this size.

Cons

There is a toxic atmosphere. Worse, the administration facilitates this atmosphere. There are folks in positions in administration that are unqualified and morale is in the toilet.

Pros

Like any Job, you'll find things are not perfect from time to time but I find personally most situations are what you make of them. So its a pretty large building , 100+ employees, and more books than you can every read. Nice, safe, affluent community with easy access to I95, The Merit, buses, and Metro North. I've seen a lot of internal promotional, which generally is a good thing and a sign things are working. There are also transfer opportunities as this is a town of Greenwich Job, always good to know and keep in your back pocket. I happen to think I have great bosses, but everybody is welcome to their own opinions, I get it, seriously I do. I feel like I've brought a lot, but also that I've learned a lot and grown. Remember this is a union environment, that can be a learning curve for some. The pay is Good as compared to other places. The work reasonable. The new batch of hires seem to bring a lot of energy and seem pretty well educated, so the Bar may be pretty high ( I'm not involved there) At the end of the day I can honestly say I'm happy I came here, and found some people that i love ( an inside Joke). I've found challenges and successes, made some good friends and found some really good books, what more can you really ask for at the end of the day?

Cons

Lunch outside can be expensive at some places.
