Pros

CSC has a wonderful mission and great, dedicated people who work there. It's fun, educational and filled with staff who genuinely want to be there and beleive in the mission. The benefits are good and access to the other Carnegie musems is included.

Cons

The pay is low and many staff must work part time. CSC is often open when other museums are closed--which can be taken as either a pro or con.

Pros

Wonderful, extremely qualified coworkers who care about educating folks and committing to the mission and community norms.

Cons

Truly the worst senior management I've ever seen. They abandoned the mission and surround themselves with yes men so they can become Pittsburgh's for profit nonprofit. Despite having a union, managers will still try to get you to illegally roll your hours over to the next week to avoid paying overtime. They discourage you from getting to know other departments and forbid you from speaking to the directors. They are the most spineless, risk averse institution that desperately wants to be seen as the trusted voice of science. All they care about is their bottom line, and the exhibits suffer because of it.
