Pros

Was an associate here for the last 2 yrs and left for personal reasons. Overall a good firm and great place to work. The regional managing partner is excellent and approachable. They pay associates well. Were willing to be flexible when I fell off track due to personal reasons. Lots of work to go around and partners are helpful in circulating that work when needed. Great events & educational resources, good flexibility with re: remote/hybrid work, and I liked all of the associates I worked with.

Cons

Strict rules re: entering time/billing (as with any large firm). A few "off" or antagonistic partners.

Pros

People on the team are truly a one of kind blend of people in a good way. It's a great gig for anyone with zero experience or looking for a foot in the door for legal work.

Cons

Not much lateral movement within the department. High stress, but manageable since the software has been updated to something more intelligent and cloud based. You'll be treated more like a road block then an analyst.
