      Pros

      Some of the best benefits out there. A fantastic 401K match and solid choices for benefits. The environment isn't terrible and they used to sponsor several moral boosting events.

      Cons

      The work is boring and mind numbing. It just repeats itself in cycles. You are either way to busy or literally doing nothing. Management doesn't seem to want to help employees advance. Most managers are great reviewers but terrible leaders. Work life balance is OK. Worst thing is probably the pay. There is a lot of turnover for a reason. When the market turns around and opportunities become available this company better look out and figure out a way to retain key employees.

      Nice people let down by poor systems, poor communication ethos and parochial beginnings.

      Pros

      A fair employer, good benefits. Some slightly insecure middle management threatened by talent beneath them. Good support for off site training.

      Cons

      Every minute is billable as born from a law firm - this means recording every hour per code per week. Mourant struggles with lateral thinkers - the majority of the workforce are not university educated and they struggle when working on transactions with London based alwyers like Linklaters/Freshfields on international deals. On the job training from Directors on complex deals is non existent. Administrators are taught clients, not skills, so don't realise their worth.
