Pros

Good pay, amazingly talented attorney population, great medical benefits,respectful environment outside of HR

Cons

Micromanaging to the point of being oppressive, shameful level of turnover highlights miserable working environment which is a strong indicator of incompetent and/or unethical leadership. If you are interviewing here, be sure to zero in on turnover! Certain departments in HR have turned over completely, twice in 1 year. There is a core reason for people wanting to leave, after years, after only a couple of months.
