Pros

- Lower management (some direct managers and assistant managers) actually care for employees - it can be a nice place to work if you’re allowed to work without micromanagement or ridiculous rules

Cons

- Upper management has no idea how to run credit control, billing or cashiering and has lost respect from most staff - ridiculous rules about coming into the office and making days up should you not be able to attend despite a perfectly run team for the past 2 years - collections have been failing miserably for years yet still nothing is done with the managers who have no control over the team of under qualified staff - upper management agrees to terms with staff then goes back on agreements weeks later with no claim to knowing about them and also regularly in meetings asks the same questions over and over again and clearly pays no attention

Pros

Your experience in Defense group is highly dependent on who your managing partner is. Good work-life balance. Manageable case load. Fellow associates generally nice and willing to help. Secondment program allows you to take a week long work trip to another Kennedys office anywhere in the globe and learn about foreign legal system. Depending on your team, you can handle some really interesting cases that even go outside of ID realm.

Cons

Support staff sucks. Management doesn't want to invest in support staff. Pay is not the best. NY firm is a bit siloed. Its still ID work so it can get miserable at times. Sometimes firm culture can be a bit catty - lots of people talking behind your back and you gotta watch what you say to certain folks.
