Pros

1.)This is a reputable firm and a great name to have on your resume. 2.)The firm is large so there are a lot of resources available to help you get your job done. 3.) Despite the many bad apples, there is a large number of very nice people who help make the job tolerable. 4.) Onsite gym, cafeteria, and child care center

Cons

You will be "managed" by people who have no idea of what you do on the job. Therefore these "managers" will constantly call you or email you to help with other projects because they are completely unaware of your workload. You will be handling most of the work in your team because the legal secretaries are overpaid tenured workers who do a bunch of nothing all day because they can. No one questions them and they can get away with murder, so you will be forced to pick up their slack. You will not have half of the luxuries of the secretaries even though when they hired you they claimed you were equals.
