Pros

Quinn pays its attorneys at the top of the market. It also has no concerns about "face time" and it is easy to work at home when circumstances require.

Cons

There is no sense of responsibility towards the associates -- you sink or swim on your own. It is not a friendly place. Also, it is primarily a patent litigation shop, which is fine if you are in fact a patent litigator but is problematic if you are a general or soft IP attorney.
