Pros

Good salary, interesting work. How much you like your job depends a lot on which partners you work with. Good credit for bringing in clients.

Cons

Jerk partners. Tries to compete with big boys on salary but us cheap on benefits - people are still using CRT monitors.

Pros

The pay is market rate, the facilities are top notch, and the people get along quite well and treat each other with respect.

Cons

There is not a lot of work to go around, and management is not good at keeping people informed about the status of the firm.
