Pros

Lots of hands on experience and good learning opportunity. Offer some benefits: CLE stipend. At times the place and the work seemed interesting. When there is a high volume of work to be done you can get a lot of experience in a short amount of time, but you'll have to figure it out on your own.

Cons

Micromanaging, Poor Communication, Bad Bonus Structure, Toxic Work Environment, Poor Compensation. No mentoring. Partners will take credit for all your good work and then blame you for anything that goes wrong -- even if you had nothing to do with it.

Pros

The founders of the firm are both women and are top notch trial attorneys. Given this, any attorney looking to try more cases, or become better trial attorneys, will have this opportunity here. They are both great mentors, provide full support, and full autonomy on all of your cases from inception to trial. They have an open door policy and actually care about your well-being as a person. Unlike many other firms, they understand if you are overwhelmed or at capacity and need assistance on your cases. They are true team players, and they want to see you succeed. The dress code is business casual to causal and while there are billable hours (like every firm), no one monitors your whereabouts as long as you get your work done. All of attorneys and staff are also great people to with work with, people you actually want to hang out with outside of work.

Cons

This is not a firm to be at if you can't handle a full caseload independently.
