Pretty good for big law!

Pros

If you're looking for big law, I'd probably recommend Orrick. They do a good job of pretending to care about their associates, and have an interesting mix of cases and subject matters. And it's big enough that you can try to change teams if you don't like who you are working with.

Cons

It is still big law, so there's a pretty low ceiling.

Pros

There are awesome benefits including PTO, maternity AND paternity leave, annual bonuses, and referral bonuses.

Cons

The management and HR do not write up or coach, so some employees take advantage of that.
