Pros

The pay is good for some positions. We are allowed to wear casual clothes at work, with few restrictions. There used to be an annual bonus system, but this might be phased out.

Cons

There is TOO MUCH WORK for the number of employees, and the rules and expectations change literally every two weeks. The upper management seem distant and uncaring. There is no room for advancement unless you are a family friend or prior co-worker of the new executive. The computer system never works appropriately, and it causes endless unnecessary frustrations and delays...despite there being nearly 12 IT consultants on staff, doing who-knows-what. The employees who are not attorneys are disrespected and poorly paid.

Pros

Good benefits and salary, routine hours (now the hours are flexible), bonus program and a casual environment. This is a good job for attorneys looking to leave litigation behind and have a routine schedule with great work/life balance. You get your own case load and the effort you put into the cases is what you get out of it. Don't listen to the gossip and you'll be just fine if you're willing to work!

Cons

There is a lot of work and the work is not always well organized. Some employees have bad attitudes or gossip - surprising from "professionals" This can create a negative environment (see prior posts) and the negative people blame management. The computer systems (subromax and the document management one) too often are slow or freeze so I can't be productive. I understand that there will be a new computer program so hopefully that will help. The office can be way too loud, or way too quiet, it depends. The temperature has gotten a lot better recently but I've been way too hot and way too cold, it depends. I don't have a lot of room to work and it can feel claustrophobic.
