      A place to go in a tough job market, but avoid if better oppts are available

      Pros

      Convenient Manhattan location across the street from the Chrysler Building and near Grand Central Terminal. The firm offers half days before federal holidays as well.

      Cons

      As a Legal Assistant, there are absolutely zero chances for internal advancement. The firm knows that Legal Assistant positions have great turnover, and very little was invested in me. While the position is EXEMPT and salaried, Legal Assistants are still required to clock in and out -- evidence of extreme micromanaging and little trust in entry-level professional staff.
