It is a super-charged political environment - Human Resources Greenville County Library Employee Review

Pros

If you are a female or minority and have no ambition it is a steady place to work. For the environment the pay is good for a library worker in the upstate of South Carolina. You participate in the SC Retirement System but not any other state or county benefits.

Cons

If you show any signs of being able to think for yourself you will be ostracized - bullied by the current Executive Director. Only women are promoted to the senior levels of management in the GCLS. All senior males were eliminated in the director's second year of employment. You are supposed to have the same rights as Greenville County employees but the Executive Director does not follow that. The Executive Director reports to a quasi-government board appointed by the County Council. She is a puppet to two of the board members.

Pros

There aren’t many pros. Nice coworkers and decent management.

Cons

Pay. Pay is a joke. For part timers you get no work life balance. They give you a TINY bit of time off. It’s not a good work life balance. They also play favorites.
