Pros

It's a law firm with decent industry name-brand recognition.

Cons

You become an insignificant cog in an unforgiving, recalcitrant wheel. Not much room for personal growth. No educational opportunities, advancements, promotions within job or professional development unless you're an associate attorney or partner. It's no secret why this law firm has such a high employee turnover rate. Unless you're an attorney, prepare to be treated as steerage. For a company that flaunts it's (financial) growth and has the audacity to publicly release it's ever-increasing, annual financial revenues/earnings information, it's very ironic that the firm's employees' paychecks don't increase with it.
