Pros

Partners care about long-term success of associates. Good quality of work, reasonable billable expectations, competitive compensation.

Cons

They could do a better job of ongoing training, but I think that goes for all law firms. I also didn't see a coordinated effort at using technology to improve efficiency, such as by using document automation software.

Pros

Office culture is inclusive and friendly. Salary is somewhat competitive for staff. Bonuses are not generous. Benefits are average. Most attorneys are great to work with, but there are some of difficult attorneys that can make one’s life miserable. LAAs handle lot of billing responsibilities. Overall, a good place to work if you don’t mind the above.

Cons

Your happiness depends, in part, by who you work for. Small bonuses and raises.
