Pros

Deceptive practices and undisclosed expectations are the name of the game at Polsinelli. The only pro worth mentioning was paid parking.

Cons

Pay attention to the red flags--unusual high salary, immediate hire, and inconsistent expectation for billable hours. Additional red flags included high turnover, micromanaging boss, excessive overtime requirements, obvious partner-associate affair, lack of training, disorganized management, underlying lack of respect and support amongst everyone. If you make the mistake of taking any issues to HR relating to bullying, abuse, hostile work environment, expect to be terminated. Everything you say will be used against you. HR has mastered gaslighting, manipulation so it is best to move on quickly and quietly. They will boldly interview your replacement right in your face!
