Pros

People are generally friendly, the salary and benefits were good, and so was the PTO/sick policy. I thought that was pretty standard. They have free lunch 1x a month, and free breakfast (usually bagels, fruit, coffee, OJ, etc) once weekly (usually Fridays). I do think they do things to make sure employees know they are appreciated. Pretty decent training and welcome but I think there could have been more.

Cons

Little to no room for growth; attorneys are bogged down and expect a lot from you. It's not interesting work and it can get boring after a bit. You have to be someone who is okay with doing the exact same thing every day, with little to no change. I needed more and wanted a challenge, and this wasn't for me. This job is the equivalent to Groundhog Day - the same exact thing every day - after a while, it gets depressing and boring. They also expected us to work a lot of overtime and it would always be at the last minute. Many times it would be the fact that attorneys had not completed the necessary work until the last minute, and we'd be responsible for the overhaul.

Pros

People generally seemed bought in to the firm's ideas and missions.

Cons

The legal staff had rules that belonged in a middle school classroom. No headphones at your desk, no food at your desk, don't use your phone at your desk. Hovering managers whether by phone or otherwise. Just not a fun place to work.

TOXIC STAFF / TOXIC ENVIRONMENT

Pros

35 hour week. Flex hours. Bagels weekly. Good salary. Pleasant (but loud open-concept) offices.

Cons

Exec Director and HR are jokes - your job depends on if they like you. "If you don't like it, there's the door" mentality (actually said out loud) - makes you warm and fuzzy. Gossipy/dangerous staff that management is aware of and does nothing about. Unfriendly partners. Toxic work environment. Very little training.
