Advice to law firm management:
Bring back the workplace to the days of a friendlier office. It is horrible having to work in a place with so much anger.
Pros:
Sills Cummis & Gross offers a good benefits package. I was able to accumulate a few days a month vacation time, which in my opinion isn't bad.
Cons:
The working environment isn't as friendly as it used to be. All jobs have their tense moments, but it seems like every day I'm walking into a hectic, hostile workplace.
