Pros

Some nice attorneys, casual atmosphere

Cons

Staff are way underpaid, overworked (partially because many are subpar and/or get away with being lazy), and treated poorly. Vacation and sick days are accrued and fewer than at other firms. The worship of the almighty PPP dollar is at the expense of most everything else. It's really a one man show, and a big firm needs checks and balances (which it doesn't seem to have). They like to say "No Firm Like Ours"...but it has a whole different meaning to the staff. I have worked at other big firms and have never seen any run so poorly.
