Pros

They pay market rate and the offices are air conditioned. That's all I can come up with. The firm color is blue. Lots of litigation work, if that interests you.

Cons

Benefits costs are higher than average. 401(k) vesting is a five-year cliff. No real bonuses. If you work overtime, you get in trouble, but if you don't, you get in trouble. Work 80+ hours weeks because they're shorthanded--and they're always shorthanded because people burn out--and they'll still complain when you take a day off to do necessary personal stuff. Whatever you do isn't enough.
