Pros

Opportunity for engaging, productive work. Intelligent, decent people. Good benefits.

Cons

Firm policies and practices can be exasperatingly impersonal and alienating. Too many excellent and highly capable people have left the firm. Poor remuneration for excellent work praised by client and attorneys alike.

Pros

Various range & exposure to different areas of law. Some people are nice

Cons

Large firm who cares about stiffing their hard working employees and putting even more money into partners pockets. They discriminate beyond belief. They screw people over and treat them like they are a dime a dozen and hold no value. I refer to this place as an HR nightmare, which guess what? THE HR Dept. IS A NIGHTMARE and they DO NOTHING to secure an equal, non discriminatory work environment. I've never seen so many disgusting acts or persons and in a law firm nonetheless.
