Pros

Largely collegial and supportive environment. Excellent colleagues with whom I enjoy working. Given enough "rope" to make my own business decisions, but know I have support from on high.

Cons

As in most any professional services environment, the sheer "mass" of work can become overwhelming, but resources are reallocated appropriately and the results (in my case, new business wins) more often than not are gratifying.

Pros

Good coworkers and supervisors. Billable work environments tend to be the same in terms of monotony, so it helps to have a good team.

Cons

Billable hours aren't the most fun thing in the world. Huge caseload.

Pros

Great benefits, pay is okay. Partners are reasonable and nice.

Cons

Firm is misogynistic. They either drove someone to quit/fired really good talent and one of the only attorneys that was sweet to the staff after they took the side of male colleague in their interpersonal issue. Watched this person get bullied and firm did nothing. A lot of exclusive groups and mean girl behavior in chicago office it is really a shame
