Current Employee Current Employee Mr. San Francisco

Advice to law firm management:
My best advice is that along with hard work you must focus on networking also, as it will help you to advance in this firm. Do not keep yourself in the background.

Pros:
This has the best firm culture I have ever experienced. A typical day starts and ends with a smile and the sense that I impacted my coworkers and community in a positive way. Everyone is open to share their knowledge and help one another grow- not only in their own areas of specialty, but to empower you in new ways.

Cons:
Great law firm, but in order to advance it's mostly about connections you have, and not your experience/background. Management can also be out of touch with employee's and job function making it difficult for employees to engage in a time of need.
