Pros

Pay $50 and you can wear jeans the entire year, except on client visits.

Cons

Nepotism, Favoritism, Retaliation, Racism are RAMPANT in this firm. You cannot advance on merit and job performance. Managerial cliques are setup to keep qualified employees out and down.

Pros

they offer a pay check.

Cons

The attorneys are overloaded with work and have little to no assistance; and most of the assistants/staff that are there have little to no training making them incompetent. The billable hour requirements is unrealistic and the pressure for billable hours is out of control; Florida Bar needs to take a look at billing practices for this firm. Managing partner, Zakkyiah White, is never seen in the office, and couldn't care less about the employees.

Pros

I met some great people while I was there. Unfortunately like me many of them are no longer there or trying to leave.

Cons

• The owner of the firm appears to be physically and mentally detached from day-to-day internal operations. He seems to have little or no idea which employees are actually making the biggest contributions. Therefore many valuable and very dedicated employees that don’t fit into the “good ole boy” club are strategically terminated by management using Reduction in Force. Meanwhile, “good ole boy” club members that don’t have a clue and not interested in working hard keep their jobs. The EEOC will have an easy time sorting this out. If the CEO knew what is going on I think he would stop it because it is affecting his bottom line. • Nepotism is running rapid in Aldridge Pite, LLP. There are so many employees that are related to each other that there is no way for family members to avoid working for each other. • Very inexperienced employees are promoted to manager. Of course this causes several employment problems. The most notable problem is they don’t have a clue how to manage people. Which often ends up in mistreatment of their subordinates including premature termination.
