Pros
Working here was a fantastic learning experience. The work life balance seemed better than other firms and there was a nice team vibe among the associates, certain groups of staff, etc. The firm was really into giving back to the community and took client service seriously.
Cons
There are a lot of great people at this firm but unfortunately, their greatness is diluted by a few crazies. Especially the managing partner in Baltimore. Whenever I had to travel to Baltimore for meetings, I would break out in hives the night before just dreading the scrutiny and DIVA attitude of the managing partner in the Baltimore office. In spite of so many personnel issues, reports of verbal abuse and the rampant turnover (literally a revolving door of associates and staff) in the Baltimore office, Management never took action and she continues to reign. Why???!!
