Pros

Banner & Witcoff is a great place to work as an attorney/patent agent because they have big firm resources with a smaller firm culture. Super smart people there, too. The flexible culture means there's room for go-getters, workhorses, and project manager types alike.

Cons

They don't suffer fools. Like any firm culture, sub-par work producers eventually get pushed out. Lots of work is with a small number of clients, so sometimes you can get stuck working for one client for a long period of time with little variety

Pros

The people are nice. The work week is 35 hours.

Cons

The pay is terrible and management did not seem to care much about staff needs. One time the AC malfunctioned and majority of the attorneys went home. Staff had to stay and suffer. Instead they brought in the AC contraction from 1965. You are treated like a child. The firm is very restrictive. You have to clock in and out, internet usage is monitored (you will get an email from management if you spend too much time on it) and there is no eating at your desk. Benefits are terrible. If you are looking to start a family, do not come to this firm. They only give you 4 weeks paid maternity leave. They do not offer short term disability and they do not observe the most common holidays (e.g., MLK, President's Day, Columbus Day, or Veterans Day).
