Pros

I worked in Human Resources and was a valued colleague and business partner. I was able to develop my career in the firm with premium resources, activities and opportunities. Beautiful office space too.

Cons

The firm was downsizing when I left Blank Rome. Nonetheless, I enjoyed working for the firm and appreciated the work experience gained, Colleagues were also very professional and I learned a great deal about the law firm environment in my role.

Pros

Fellow Associates are generally a good group to work with even if as a group you are managed by the fear of losing your job.

Cons

No work life balance of any kind. Some partners are just downright awful. Have to bill 2000+ hours to get the bare minimum bonus of $5,000 - it's simply not worth it.

Outsourced

Pros

The Word Processing department was a tight knot department where we all shared the same goal - getting the job done and out the door according to the deadline requested. We felt like we were truly appreciated by the attorneys (not by the firm).

Cons

The Word Processing Department was outsourced. Preferential treatment as far as overtime was concernied. None of the members on the Executive Committee that made the decision to outsource, were people who used the center.
