Pros

I used to have so many good things to say about this firm but now I cannot think of one single thing.

Cons

They are extremely shady and desperate. “Upper management” truly does just look at you as a number. I dedicated so much of my time and energy into this company that did not deserve any of it. I was fired without any warning. They dug and dug to have some sort of valid reason to fire me. It boils down to poor budgeting. Attorneys weren’t paid market so they got rid of those that were deserving of a significant raise or bonus (a week before that was supposed to be initiated). This place does not care about their employees. They will leave you in the dirt without any thought. I would never recommend this company to ANYONE. The pay is HORRIBLE.
