Pros

Co-workers get along very well, they make the firm a nicer place to be. The firm had a pretty good handle on maintaining a personable feel, despite it's enormous size. Pretty good PTO and great health benefits.

Cons

Seems to have become less personable in recent years, but still ok. I guess like most companies, management does not realize that its staff are actually human beings and not things or simply a means to an end.

Pros

- Excellent pay and benefits - Flexibility with the hybrid schedule (depending on your practice group) - Easy to build community with other assistants and paralegals

Cons

- Easy to fall into burnout due to understaffing in assistant/paralegal positions - Be prepared for an unexpectedly higher or lower workload at any point. - D.C. location is particularly strict about the hybrid expectations - A bit disorganized as a whole when it comes to onboarding and training for your particular practice group.
