Pros

it paid well, it had decent benefits, it had many nice and decent people to work with, and there was almost always a way to make extra money working over time.

Cons

it did not have up to date hardware or software, it was hard to get equipment or other items when required, there was a lack of appreciation of the paralegal support staff.

Pros

Orrick culture is very friendly and informal for a law firm. Everyone tends to maintain a sense of humor even in difficult situations. The senior attorneys are approachable and take time to talk to staff. They make deliberate efforts to involve junior staff and are willing to give you opportunities you may not get at other big firms. If you are very ambitious, there is room for growth.

Cons

The pace is exacting. Expect to work your ass off. Senior employees work very hard and you will be expected to match them.
