Pros

Laid back work environment and ability to do meaningful legal work early in one's career.

Cons

This firm is going through extreme growing pains. They have more work than they can handle, yet refuse to hire more attorneys. This place is a "spring board" for promising young attorneys who have a tough time in today's job market. This place could be amazing if they fairly compensated their employees, provided opportunities for advancement, and mentored their young attorneys. The owner is more interested in the bottom line than the legacy and prestige of his firm or any of the attorneys who work for him.

Absolutely horrible management and mentorship with little pay. They love to hire minority women only to overwork and underpay them.
