      Pros

      I was a legal assistant. Solid benefits package, OK pay (seems comparable to other big firms, maybe on the lower end), mostly decent attorneys (of course with some arrogant or awkward ones)

      Cons

      Office culture is depressing, low morale, clear divide between attorneys and non-attorney staff, shoebox-sized offices for staff, strict time-off procedures, HR is horrendous both professionally and personally
