Good company, good people. - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Solvaire Technologies

Nonstressful work environment and very respectful people to work with.

No major Cons. If you work effectively you get all the credit.

This company staffs contract attorney positions for the Pittsburgh firm Babst Calland. Most of the positions are in the firm’s oil and gas practice group. The pros include a nice location downtown and access to free CLEs.

This company offers very little chance of advancement at the firm. A tiny fraction of contract attorneys get promotions. Contractors are sometimes treated with disrespect and unfairness depending on which attorney they are randomly assigned to. Work is done in tiny cubicles in which dozens of contractors share one room. I have witnessed a senior partner belittling contractors on several occasions. There is also a rather toxic atmosphere in which mistakes are blamed on contractors so that associates can avoid blame themselves. Finally, the pay rate is somewhat low and remained unchanged for multiple years.
