Pros
Excellent front line co-workers from a range of ages and backgrounds, great line manager, dealing with a wide range of people in a public facing role (very personally rewarding), provides a great range of services (from schools outreach and baby oriented play & song to fiction reading groups & community meetings, authors talks etc) to the people of Glasgow.
Cons
Remote, distant upper management, random bureaucracy and inefficiency/waste related to that, flexible working (ok up to a point) but also expected to move libraries to cover shifts at short notice, overall poor pay. Occasionally having to deal with a range of antisocial behaviour - from minor to major (i.e violence against staff). There is also a tendency to "managerialize" good library workers by offering progression which seems to seek to turn said workers into, essentially, data and admin processors - to little good effect.
