Pros

Compensation is, frankly, generous even in light of the hours Work with very smart people on complex matters Firm management is noticeably "nicer' than most comparable firms

Cons

Hours range from long to basically round-the-clock Work follows you home The big firm model counts on significant attrition, which worked in pre-recession, but is tough when you're one of hundreds of similarly situated biglaw associates competing for the handful of decent jobs out there these days
