Pros

If you love being in high-school forever, then the mentality of this place will be right up your alley.

Cons

Don't expect any recognition for hard work. Salary raises are given to their favourites. Very much a boys club. Double-standards. No chance for promotion to a national level unless you are male. HR are poor listeners and always on-side with management. Take your grievances elsewhere (like another law firm). Not a warm and fuzzy environment to work in at all. IT department has no real direction and requires knowledgeable IT people. Network performance is slower than cutting bricks with a dull knife. Not so good for billable time. They only care about the bottom line: money. Caring for actual people is not in their policy. If you are not a lawyer, then you are nobody. I thought they outlawed slavery long ago.

Pros

A small town law firm with the flexible hours and broad work responsibilities that lead to beneficial business development skills. With the addition above the managing partner's provide a family feel while promoting individual growth.

Cons

The negative of working in a small town is relatively smaller pay.
