Pros
In the nearly five years I’ve been with the Firm, significant growth has occurred. This has allowed for several attorneys to become internally promoted. While there are billing/revenue requirements, they’re reasonable and allow for work/life balance. The Firm supports business development efforts, which allows even junior associates to build their name and brand. Each attorney has autonomy to pursue his/her cases, but there are always other knowledgeable attorneys available with whom you can strategize. Additionally, there are cross over practice areas such that if a client of mine has an issue outside my practice area, I can easily get the information and insight from someone with relevant knowledge.
Cons
There are billing revenue requirements for which everyone is held equally accountable. There is turnover (similar to what you would expect at any job/law firm).
