Pros

Free fruit and drinks, good amount of PTO

Cons

It's obvious that firm management and HR do not feel that they need or want to share the benefits of the firms profits with staff. When they present their meager raises (never more than 2%) they act like they are giving you the Showcase on the Price Is Right. One can feel when you are being rewarded with gratitude or when you are being thrown a pittance to keep you quite. It's the intention and the energy of the management and HR that makes this firm a negative place to work.

Pros

Relatively good pay Strong companywide culture

Cons

Note: Cons apply to the editorial team, rather than the entire company. Lackluster onboarding Poor training with insufficient mentoring Inconsistent application of editorial standards and methods that are more concerned with not offending attorneys than with actually making documents better Ignorance of/disregard for basic rules of grammar Forced employees across the country to work on Pacific Time Gaslighting Belittling of previous experience, a general attitude of condescension Criticism of employees in front of other employees Lack of preparedness for meetings and instructional sessions
