There is scope for advancement but more likely if the company expands. People hardly leave unless they retire.
Learning the various ways of working.
Be prepared to deal with people who prefer the old school ways of doing things. LOL

Good place to learn and quickly gain experience but you’ll be paid less than market and have poor work life balance

Colleagues made the work day bearable.
Upper management does not care for the opinion of middle management and line workers. Decisions are made based on what they believe could/should work. Not considering the professionals that complete the work on a daily basis.
It’s a good “training ground” so to speak. A decent introduction to the library landscape.

The toxic environment
Don’t
Supervisor · Current employee · Full-time
The culture was super impressive accountability was foremost, staff was asked to engage with the work process, suggest ideas on overall improvement, the right people were being promoted etc
Favoritism became the name of the game. Persons who had no clue what they were doing were being called promoted accountability became less and less so the lazy persons were getting away with doing little to no work while others suffered
Take every advantage of all opportunities presented to you whilst on the job especially if it serves your interests in growing your career.

New company trying to make a name
Poor management and leadership, lack of culture and teamwork
If you need a job it’s ok
Manager · Former employee · Contract
Great structure and clear roles
Stifling older management
Upward mobility is limited or restricted
Manager · Former employee · Full-time
Their brand culture and range in diversity is great, very good for persons just starting out in the work world
Crab in a mentality among staff who think they’ll somehow reach the top by climbing over others.
Unless you have serious qualifications and contacts you’re treated as an outcast most times. Younger immature cliques by employees who think they’re better just because they’ve been there longer

The people generally aren't bad...the brands are iconic and easy to support.
Politics and pettiness abounds. If you're not part of the in crowd your progress will suffer and efforts may be ignored.
Don't settle and beware the politics
