Pros

Smart lawyers doing great work. There is an emphasis on growing the practise and getting better clients, but no sense of how to do that. Compensation was fair, bonuses not really existent. Bit of a face time place, but high level of autonomy in actual work.

Cons

Management is terrible, especially in corporate. I understand management is changing. There is an emphasis on conformity. Creativity in pitching clients and performing work is discouraged greatly. Performance review system is a joke.
