Great firm - little control locally

Pros

Great firm with prestige. A bunch of hardworking lawyers and super smart professionals. Pay is near top for most markets.

Cons

Little control locally, and it's mostly controlled from the East coast. They'll charge a client in CA, CA rates even if the lawyer working on the work is in the midwest and being paid substantially less than a CA lawyer.

Diminished and diluted

Pros

Legacy lawyers are mostly high quality, but nearing retirement age. Succession planning lacking and seems too late to salvage.

Cons

Perplexing growth initiative. Too much; too fast. Why? Some are concerned. Spaghetti to the wall strategy. Top management nice, but lacking in intellectual capacity and polish.
