Pros

Excellent place to work. A big firm without all of the big firm hassles, inefficiencies and bureaucracy. Venable still has some of these, but far fewer than most big firms.

Cons

When I was there, the head of my department took credits that should have been passed down to others. He is no longer with the firm.

Pros

good pay and benefits if you are one of their pets

Cons

pretty much everything else, if you are not an employee who has been there a long time and knows everything, they treat you horribly

Pros

Partners care about long-term success of associates. Good quality of work, reasonable billable expectations, competitive compensation.

Cons

They could do a better job of ongoing training, but I think that goes for all law firms. I also didn't see a coordinated effort at using technology to improve efficiency, such as by using document automation software.
