Pros

Generally people are somewhat nice. Pay is market, but that's it (no perks, no budgets, will fight you for every dollar).

Cons

Their initiative to prioritize mental health is pure lip service. Total sweatshop. Will grind you into oblivion without a moment's hesitation. Frat house.

Pros

Salary Experiences will vary wildly by office/group. Do your diligence before accepting an offer.

Cons

Some groups are fine, others are downright toxic. Harassment is rampant. Powerful partners/rainmakers get a pass on behavior; the rest just look the other way. Firm is top-heavy so little room for advancement. Turnover rate is extremely high and lateral hires come from regional firms or the government. Poor training and resources. Partners/senior associates give little information and even withhold information necessary to do your job. Poor transparency. Hours requirements for advancement/ bonus aren't set until the billable year ends, leaving associates working towards an unclear target. Any firm policy on work/life balance, mental health, etc. is just lip-service. Facetime is huge. You are only as good as the number of hours you bill (not the quality of your work).
