Pros

Stoel is a good place to gain experience on your way to your dream job. They have an excellent training staff and many practice assistants and paralegals who are highly knowledgeable in their various areas of law. You can learn a lot there that will build your skill set and help hone your focus as to what you ultimately want to do.

Cons

They have shrunk their staff down to a point where employees are overwhelmed and overloaded due to high ratios. They have coddled and enabled some highly toxic staff members simply because they have good skills or knowledge. Upper management at times seemed nearly obsessed with "what the other firms are doing" instead of simply focusing on improving things internally.

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
