TOXIC MANAGEMENT - Anonymous employee Glen Ellyn Public Library Employee Review

Great work environment, supportive coworkers

Mostly part time positions in Library Services department

Great benefits & pay; most of my colleagues were amazing.

Mistakes are not acceptable. To receive any praise or encouragement, I first had to endure having all my faults (real and imagined) brought up not only to me, but in front of colleagues in meetings. (This also happened to other colleagues.) Even then, I had to ask repeatedly for positive reinforcement. Most often, praise must first come from the community before my manager acknowledged that I did anything right. Be prepared to be confused - after being belittled by my manager, I was praised for the same thing by the Executive Director to a Board Member. Administration outright lies.
