Pros

- Good PTO time (too busy and stressed to take it) - Working remote was nice - concert perks

Cons

I was on a PIP for over a year, I was given more work, responsibility, and under more scrutiny. Not once was my heavy workload questioned but I kept on getting more work and being told that I should be able to handle it. It kept on being extended because apparently I was improving Just enough. I moved on to another position within the company and two people are now doing the job I was supposed to be able to do on my own. HR made an excuse for this when I brought it up in my exit interview. HR and management come off as nice initially but they can't be trusted. They gaslight and don't actually care what employees say. Support staff supervisor is overworked, supervises too many people and I only really talked to her if I had a question or was in trouble. There were no regular check ins except for the yearly review. Policies and procedures were constantly changing. Right when you get used to something they have to go and change it up again to apparently help streamline everything. They hire a bunch of new support staff at once a few times a year but not many actually last. No idea if they actually know how to assist a legal staff member or not. Some of the partners are nice but are oblivious to the amount of work assistants do.
