Great potential, but management falls short by not utilizing their assets

Business Outlook

Pros

Overall company as a whole is financially doing well.

Cons

Home office (Dallas) tries to bring a cookie cutter management approach to their other offices located in other states which conflicts with the local cultures. Texas is a state-of-mind, just as California and New York have very different mindsets.

Fresh fruit is a daily offering in all the lounges and there are no vending machines.

Atmosphere can be somewhat stuffy. Some attorneys think they are gods.
