Pros

The associates were helpful. The building is in a great location. There is opportunity for advancement if you make a commitment to the firm culture.

Cons

There is a disconnect between the partners and associates. I think there needs to be more of a mentoring program for young associates as they learn the law and develop their skills.

Pros

Great clients, interesting and varied work, wonderful mentors who will really help you advance (if you're lucky enough to find one), good name recognition and prestige

Cons

Lack of cohesiveness, favoritism and backstabbing, letting personal issues cloud decision-making, weak office leadership allows the egomaniacs to run amok, management still talks the talk, but the atmosphere doesn't live up to the hype

Pros

The firm used to have a good reputation. It used to be known as a good employment law firm.

Cons

Jackson Lewis does not care about whether the lawyers who work there are happy. People are leaving all the time and they do not seem to care at all. They do nothing to change the culture. In fact, they keep making it worse.
