      HQ Legal has a nepotism problem

      Pros

      If you can find a group to commiserate with, surviving HQ can be bearable as you will can joke what day they will finally fire you. Work-life balance is decent if you suck up enough to get it.

      Cons

      Benefits are lacking. Compensation is decent, but if you are truly skilled and knowledgeable, you can probably get paid more somewhere else. Raises are nothing and only match inflation. HQ Legal as a nepotism problem. You will never get noticed or promoted unless you play the suck-up game well. GC promoted someone WITH NO ETHICS OR COMPLIANCE EXPERIENCE into the Chief Ethics & Compliance Officer role... because she had a friendship with him.

      Pros

      Co-workers are loyal to each other

      Cons

      Management from the top down is terrible. The have no concept of work life balance, it's all about the bottom line. You know, the one that keeps them in fancy company paid vehicles, huge raises, unlimited $$ for expensive restaurants and hotels. All the employees ever hear is the dire warnings about how poorly the company is doing, benefit cutbacks, lay offs, etc., but the company perks continue to increase for the management team. The HR team comes out every year and tows the company line right before they tell you how much smaller your paycheck is going to be, how your benefits are going to be reduced and cost you more.

      Pros

      Immediate supervisor was good, benefits were good, car allowance and mileage was above average.

      Cons

      Too much management, several levels of management that were there just for reporting. Morale was atrociously poor. Very little incentive for hard work. Good employees were dumped on, poor employees could get away with doing nothing and dragging the organization down.
