Pros

Mostly very nice people working at KLD who are happy to help. Interesting subject matter with lots of potential. Given space and time to learn initially

Cons

Little support from management, role not as described in interview process, people working on silos, favouritism blatant. Poor reputation in the legal market making it difficult to sell. Painfully Americanised
