Pros

There were pros, that being the benefits, time off, the people I worked with, and even the leading edge technology. I met some good people.

Cons

This isn't just my opinion, it's the opinion of my sister-in-law as well who was a partner at the firm till it drove her to quit. The culture is terrible. From an antiquated protestant work ethic, to way too much concern for appearances over substance, to EXTREME MICROMANAGEMENT, to the expectations that are inhuman, unreasonable and unmeetable. It's impossible to please anyone. You're never good enough, ever. You will constantly feel on edge, worried and stressed out over whether you'll make it at this place. I found it strange that so many people here were also super conservative, politics wise. Not a lot of diversity there. Companies, especially law firms like this, will thrive regardless of this culture, but I hope that they'll find themselves short on people willing to take a job from them.
