Pros

The projects you are working on can be interesting.

Cons

I don’t recommend working there. The culture is so bad because of some people who are not doing their job and spend all day manipulating others and get promoted for doing so. Therefore, you have managers spending hours out of the office for personal reasons everyday, talking poorly to staff, undermining people and more. Your mental health will suffer as there is a big lack of support from management or from HR. Some lawyers are just extremely toxic, everyone knows who they are but nothing is done, HR received several complaints about these people and are simply not doing anything and the place becomes more and more toxic everyday.
