Pros

- Meaningful work with substance. Your work has a direct impact on the firm. - I.T. teams and Development team work well together. - The firm does a great job of keeping technology current. - There is a lot of opportunity to learn and expand your knowledge within the firm. - Company pension - Vacation Time - On-Site Gym - On-Site cafe is awesome - Very competitive pay / bonus structure - Good work/life balance

Cons

- No 401k matching. Sidley makes up for this with a great pension plan. This is the only con I could think of. I enjoyed my time at Sidley. The team functions like a well oiled machine and above all else management has a genuine interest in your morality at the firm. If you are afforded the opportunity to join the firm, I highly recommend it.
