Started off great, only gotten worse. - Library Associate Kansas City Public Library Employee Review

Pros

PTO is available for FT and PT staff. There is a yearly bonus of 1%, only upper level gets more. FT staff has much more room for career expansion. A good job if you are passionate about books/reading. Great opportunity for community involvement.

Cons

Huge disconnect between "front facing" staff who interact with patrons on a regular basis vs "back office" staff who do not. Policies are being made by managers who have not interacted with community on a regular basis (if at all) in years. Admin will *always* side with FT / managerial level staff, regardless of the situation.
