Pros

If you are interested in and believe in education and supporting pro bono representation for those who need legal assistance, this is the place for you. Top notch product with excellent brand recognition. While its a organization that's been around for over 80 years, there is nothing old about what is happening these days - new management team taking innovative approaches to product development, use of technology, and enterprise wide collaboration. Lots of transparency and communication from Management to staff. Feedback is welcomed and acted upon in many instances. Fun people to work with who have work/life balance. Love the benefits, especially the organization's 10% contribution to the retirement plan. The early summer Fridays aren't too bad either :) among many other perks....

Cons

PLI is growing, so a little tight on physical employee office space, though organization is reviewing telecommuting policies where appropriate. I'd like an opportunity to get to know employees in other areas more and understand their projects and challenges.

Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback. We are happy to hear that you are in tune with the transparency of our management group. As you point out, we do our best to ensure that employee ideas and feedback are recognized, so we are glad that you are encouraged by this and hope that you continue to share your ideas. PLI is very proud of the benefit package that we offer our employees, including our generous retirement contribution. As for the office space, this is something we are actively working on and we have a plan in place to alleviate some of the more cramped departments; thank you for your patience as this is put into action. We have heard similar feedback about opportunities to interact with employees from other departments, and this is also something that we are working to address. We have our company wide summer event coming up this week which will support inter-department interaction. We are also planning another company-wide event for later this year, so stay tuned for upcoming opportunities to engage with your colleagues! Please continue to feel comfortable sharing your feedback and let HR know if you have any questions or concerns about your experience working at PLI. Thank you, Joanna Sawyer Manager, Talent Acquisition
