Pros

pay is at or below industry norm

Cons

While cell phones are prohibited for all review attorneys, project managers will choose to "ignore" seeing phones of their friends. Cell phone rules are only enforced to get rid of employees who project managers dislike. It is awfully disrespectful that some project managers barely know foreign languages such as Japanese and Portuguese and yet are put in roles to supervise such languages.

* Strong brand recognition and an impressive roster of clients and projects. * Opportunity to work with talented colleagues across multiple business segments. * Exposure to a fast-paced environment that provides significant professional growth and learning opportunities.

Cons

* Lack of consistent leadership visibility and clear strategic direction across parts of the organization. * Communication from senior leadership can be limited, leaving employees without a clear understanding of priorities and long-term goals. * Decision-making often feels reactive rather than proactive. * Accountability and partnership are inconsistent across teams and business segments. * Employees may not always feel adequately supported when raising concerns or navigating challenging situations. * Leadership teams are often stretched thin, which can impact coaching, communication, and overall employee support. * Performance evaluation and promotion processes can lack transparency, making it difficult to understand how decisions are made. * Employee experiences can vary significantly depending on team, manager, and business segment. * Opportunities for feedback exist, but employees do not always see meaningful action taken in response to recurring concerns. * Collaboration and cross-functional alignment can be challenging at times due to differing priorities and expectations.
