Pros

There are no pros to working in this firm.

Cons

I strongly recommend all minority applicants to apply elsewhere. This place engages in discriminatory hiring practices that project harmful stereotypes on candidates, and the mediocre MANAGERS brag about not paying attention during meetings. Overall a terrible environment to work and their bragging about their diversity is entirely performative. Stay away!

Pros

It is Cravath Salary Scale

Cons

it has the highest turnover in Boston Big Law for a reason: Higher billable requirements than almost any other firm in Boston; Horrible reputation (both culture and with clients) on the corporate side; Abusive reputation; Very long partnership track (12 years); Unlikely to hit billable hour requirements unless on the M&A team; Very low client retention, especially on the ecvc side; no centralized staffing; Poor support with very few paralegals (and very high paralegal turnover); Losing steam over the last few years.
