Advice to law firm management:
Involve personnel at the lower levels in more aspects of the firm's decision making processes, and increase communication with them in general. Give IT the resources they need to succeed.
Pros:
The support staff members I worked with were consistently friendly and skilled. Certain benefits were much appreciated, and those in management were pleasant to work with and eager to teach, on the occasions I did manage to get their attention.
Cons:
The firm's IT assets seemed out of date at times, and I had difficulty convincing my superiors about the need for changes in this area - in fact, getting management to respond to valid complaints was typically problematic in general, unfortunately. Working hours could be relatively long, at times.
