Vantaggi
Half day Fridays in the summer (firm gives you back 4 hours a week in the summer after you end up giving them 15-30 additional hours over 40 per week during the busy season). If your an intern they will hire you full time without a question. It take a lot for KLR to fire an associate that came up through the intern program.
Svantaggi
This firm is entirely ran from the providence office. Boston and Waltham are satellite offices with all the main partners and managers in providence. Partners and managers do not talk to each other so seniors at KLR literally have a dozen bosses that all expect their work done as soon as possible. Firm is trying to grow too fast without worrying about the growing pains. They will tell you the hours are flexible and the work/life balance is great but that is a joke. They seem to be more interested in perceptions of providence partners seeing you in early in the morning and stay late at night instead of treating you like a professional and judge your performance based on the work you actually do. The it department is a joke as well. Issues everyday. Don't work at KLR unless you want to get the workload of a big four without the recognition of working on public companies.
