      Pros

      Depending on who you work for this can be a good place to be employed. The technology is outdated BUT they are in the process of upgrading multiple systems so it is good to see some progress.

      Cons

      Technology is outdated but we've been told they are upgrading our systems. The perks are lacking and bonuses for non-legal staff are virtually non-existent. Managers and co-workers are hit or miss and there doesn't seem to be consequences to anyone's bad behavior. CFO is pompous but no one takes him seriously.
