The work environment was somewhat dull and I never really connected toanyone except for work purposes. We sometimes are required to work long hours and it is stressful,as to be expected, but I don't remember ever having a day without some sort of stress. Prepareto put in a lot of hours. Not much upward mobility here.

What would you, or others, like to see changed at employer?
Get rid of the uneducated and inexperienced supervisors. Hire quality. Thank god that awful human being who was the "lead" secretary is leaving. She is so mean and abusive.
What were the things that you liked most about this employer?
Favoritism and incompetence are promoted. Many partners recently left and one took some of the awful girls with him. Their behaviors were horrific to co workers for years. Low salaries. Ridiculous billing hours. Very poor working conditions. People don't go to work to work, they go to gossip and divide the workforce.
What did you not like about this institution?
Nothing is positive about this place. Miserable people get promoted and there is a lack of management. This firm needs to clean house and start over. Too much gossip. Thank god the lead secretary left because she was the source of all gosdip and was a miserable little girl.
People, departments, offices, products, services and whatever comes to mind that should be avoided at this institution
The ones that are leaving....and the associates. They ruin firm culture. Half the firm doesn't like 1 attorney but she was promoted to a partner because she kissed ads and stepped on peoples backs to get ahead. Thank god those 4 awful attorneys are leaving.
How could this employer run its business to employees or the public better?
Nothing is good. Sloppy work product and inexperience lawyers mess up cases and don't care. Staff is treated poorly.
