Pros

Tons of money to throw at (certain) problems, very nice managing partner, free lunch/breakfast on certain days, great (but rare) happy hours, etc.

Cons

Extremely out dated IT (infrastructure, applications, hardware, etc.), the lack of communication is atrocious, teams are siloed which leads to inefficiencies in case processing, the Finance team is incompetent and unresponsive - even to clients.

Pros

Decent overtime pay. I also had a decent training/onboarding experience, but this was not the norm.

Cons

Exploitative, 80+ hour work weeks, 2am messages from attorneys, burn-out model for paralegals and associates (scoop them up after BA or JD and overwork them until they quit), misrepresent case load during interview by 50% of total, low ceiling for non-attorney career advancement. Have an exit plan.
