Pros

Good benefits. Good mandatory hours (35/wk). Lots of time off (max 30 days for starting people, goes up to ~2 mos max).

Cons

Overtime is pretty constant. I've never worked 35 hrs, and constantly go over 40.

Pros

The folks who have been at Sidley for 3+ years are great.

Cons

HORRIBLE leadership and management at the firm. The workday integration was a mess, and new CHRO has really tanked the company culture. They are also only giving out 3% raises the year the firm has record profits. Associates are burnt out and mean to staff. They underpay staff and then wonder why their best talent is leaving.
