Pros

Good benefits, great resources, lots of trainings, nice lawyers.

Cons

CH secretarial supervisors should be eliminated. they are supposed to help keep the lawyers and other secretaries informed of our out-of-office schedules and back-ups. supervisors can't even get our schedules right, and consistently make mistakes. when we need help, we were asked to look for help ourselves and talk to our team members ourselves. but when we are swamped with work, the supervisors should be there to assist us to ask for help!
