Pros
There are some supportive and kind attorneys here, along with some great LAs.
Cons
Unfortunately, HWG has a culture of carelessness when it comes to workplace boundaries and appropriate behavior. The firm has no training on sexual harassment and no staff point of contact for reporting concerns. HWG has left the incredibly important job of maintaining a safe work environment to its own attorneys, who are often unaware of the dynamics legal analysts can face or ill-equipped to deal with these sensitive issues. One staff member regularly encourages legal analysts to drink and socialize with him after hours, and concerns about this and other behavior go largely ignored.
