Carpenter Library: Great Coworkers--Hostile Management - Circulation Clerk Saint Louis Public Library Employee Review

Pros

Coworkers were great, patrons were nice. Other branches were pleasant work environments.

Cons

I HIGHLY recommend against applying to work at Carpenter. The two managers at Carpenter are not very supportive of their staff, and often unnecessarily rude and micro-managing. Staff are not allowed to have even small conversations amongst themselves, and will get reprimanded for doing so.
