Pros

Some of the partners and associates are very nice and pleasant to work with; some interesting clients and potentially interesting work if you establish a relationship with the right partners

Cons

Very cheap for a big firm and cut corners on every possible expense; dishonest with employees about job prospects and post-summer hiring; some partners are miserable to work for; some associates will throw you under the bus without any hesitation; overall very stuffy and unpleasant work environment

Pros

Love the people I work with and the culture of the firm. Pleasant working environment.

Cons

You have to clock in and out when you arrive and when you leave and on your lunch break! Ridiculous, we are professionals! Also, the benefits are expensive for the employee contribution, and you have to wait literally YEARS to receive any profit sharing from them in your profit sharing account (which is their version of a 401k). Benefits could be so much better compared to other large law firms.

Pros

Pay was good for an internship. Some attorneys were enjoyable to interact with.

Cons

Everything is dry and boring. Even the office itself is painted in dull colors. Manager often blamed me for things that were not my fault and out of my hands. Often had to help with binding of documents and stayed way past my regular 8-5 required hours.
