Pros

At least they should make it look less obvious that pli is writing their own positive reviews. Their real reviews are otherwise so negative, they've taken a new approach to polishing their image -- write your own reviews!

Cons

Employees are not happy. And the salary is so low with no chance of advancement and no care from mgt for employee development, with the improved economy employees are no longer feeling trapped into enduring pli.

The management of PLI is very disappointed by the posting authored by this employee. Not only is the accusation that PLI fabricates Glassdoor postings absolutely false and demeaning to the original contributors, but this employee's use of the phrase "LOL" reflects very poor judgment and a lack of appreciation that making such a false allegation is, in fact, no laughing matter. As a professional educational organization, each day we demonstrate a deep commitment to transparency. Information is circulated in a variety of ways to staff nearly every day about a wide range of PLI business matters. As an organization whose commitment and mission is to train attorneys and other professionals to practice in a knowledgeable, ethical manner, making such a claim is particularly offensive and disturbing. PLI has consistently welcomed feedback from all employees and will respond to those concerns in the best manner possible. We appreciate that the author of this post is not happy about a number of issues. We encourage all employees to communicate directly with their managers, speak directly to anyone in HR, submit a suggestion through a variety of internal feedback mechanisms or speak directly with our President. Our goal is that employee concerns be heard, addressed and resolved in the best way possible. For example, based on requests in recent employee surveys, we have enhanced staff professional development training in a variety of areas. All employees are invited and encouraged to participate. As do all employers, PLI recognizes there is always room for improvement, and we continue to work hard to be responsive to our talented community of employees. Our staff is comprised of very gifted, talented and dedicated employees, and we encourage you to find out more about the open opportunities at PLI and see for yourself. Sincerely, Joan D. Sternberg VP, Human Resources
