      Great for such a large firm

      Associate attorney
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great people who are intelligence and good to work with, very collegial. I find it more relaxed than some other large law firms. The compensation is market standard and the firm is prestigious.

      Cons

      The hours are long but that is pretty much standard for a large law firm. Because the firms profits keep going up, management should share some extra love with the associates.
