Vantaggi
When the firm is busy, associates generally get good and varied work experiences. Decent amount of pro bono opportunities. Some good partners to work for and learn from.
Svantaggi
The firm cut salaries due to Covid last year and has not made associates whole. Claims to pay market bonuses but does not seem to actually be the case. Very negative and toxic work environment. Many partners are a nightmare to work for, including those with senior roles at the firm. Overall toxic environment from top down. Low morale among many attorneys because of the negativity and financial situation. High turnover in the last year or two. When the firm isn't busy, work can come to a standstill with partners playing favorites as to who gets assignments. Terrible work-life balance when the firm is busy.
