Pros

Good benefit package Many social events for staff Wide range of job duties, good for entry level to build transferable skills.

Cons

Big disconnect between the lawyers and support staff. Many of the lawyers will not even acknowledge the support teams that do not support them. Very heavy workload. When I was hired I was told it is normal to work 3-6 months behind where we should be at. Low pay and it is difficult to advance through the “levels”. Many IT difficulties leading to full days with network outages.
