Pros

Work with wonderful people. I have the opportunity to work with people in other offices not just the Chicago office. IT within each office and the help desk always available to assist with any type of computer problems. H&K has it's own travel agency. Nice place to work.

Cons

The firm had a couple RIF's in the past serveral years, it was sad to see people laid off. But when you merge a few firms together in a new city to make a new H&K in a new city, I guess that is what needs to be done.

Pros

The support staff is nice and Jean Fridays

Cons

A lot of the Attorneys are jerks, firm is cheap, management is unorganized and untrustworthy. No work life balance. You aren't rewarded for good work. No raises or bonuses unless you count an iPad as your bonus.... They'd rather overwork you than hire extra staff.
