What would you, or others, like to see changed at employer?
Management needs training and the courage to stand up to this group of cowards. Partners should look carefully at firm culture and they should agree to a common set of values, not insecure ego based nonsense, to drive their decisions. Those that sit around and watch this behavior and do nothing are afraid of being attacked and unwilling to stand up for what is right because they are also cowards. This is all about personality, ego and politics.

What were the things that you liked most about this employer?
A few good lawyers.

What did you not like about this institution?
There are a core group of partners at this firm who lack courage, values and the ability to be accountable. My experience was sickening. These partners acted like high school students who decided to pile on another student because they didn't like him. To make matters worse, management did nothing about this ridiculous behavior because they, too, were cowards who did not have the slightest clue about how to run a law firm. Managing partner is an insecure baby who cannot handle being challenged, and will destroy someone's career if his ego is bruised. If you are looking for a long term career where you will be treated with respect, stay away from this place, as it dominated by lawyers who are not mature or balanced enough to treat people fairly..

People, departments, offices, products, services and whatever comes to mind that should be avoided at this institution

How could this employer run its business to employees or the public better?
That I no longer work there.
