Pros

All the pros were prior to 2015.

Cons

They became too focused on attorney salaries and weren’t paying staff well at all. Didn’t care about the well being of staff after Covid by moving to an open office concept. Didn’t bring back benefits that were suspended when Covid hit until after several employees quit. Even cut milestone recognition of staff after Covid.

Pros

Can put big law on resume

Cons

This is as “staff” can’t speak to attorney experience. Firm is very cheap. If you have to travel they will nickel and dime you on every expense. Definitely second class citizen feel as staff but probably true at any big law firm. Old outdated technology maintained by territorial management.
