Advice to law firm management:
Everyone needs a job, and nobody wants to be scared of losing the one they have. Leadership should be more transparent about things when they let someone go.
Pros:
There are a lot of smart lawyers walking around in this firm, so it's a great place for new associates to learn. Partners are pretty accessible and everyone is generally supportive and willing to help out.
Cons:
There seems to be a general consensus that the job stability here is not good. Many people live in constant fear of being downsized. I've seen it happen a few times, but I'm not sure why.

Advice to law firm management:
Learn to treat everyone as equals and show some respect to the new people. Not everyone can be at the same level, and you were there once yourself.

This is a good place to work on and learn real estate, trust and estate law. They have an excellent and steady flow of work in these areas.
Cons:
They aren't very good in the salary and bonus areas. They don't always value the newer associates or treat them with the most respect.
