Advice to law firm management: I would like to ask managers to figure out a way to mentor junior attorneys. I believe that the culture may have been overwhelming for some of them at the beginning.
Pros: During my time there, I was able to work on interesting cases and work with very intelligent people. I also liked that I could speak with upper management at any time if I had any questions.
Cons: The only issue I had was that we worked many hours every single day on our cases. Also, I had to work on the weekends sometimes, which caused burnout.
