Pros

-Structured self-managed program that gives you exposure into many different types of law (litigation, pro bono, corporate, IP, health, etc.) -Amazing coworkers; all PAs are motivated recent graduates, most who are interested in legal careers -A LOT of respect from partners and associates -Flexibility to manage your own schedule however you want (PAs have no direct manager; they take on projects from different attorneys in their respective rotation) -Great work/life balance -Soft perks like your own office, occasional free lunches, receptions, etc. -Very strong PA network (PA alumni provide law school advice, etc. and go to HYS or other T14 law schools each year)

Cons

-Base salary should be higher but overtime pay (150%) makes up for it a little bit

Pros

It is Cravath Salary Scale

Cons

it has the highest turnover in Boston Big Law for a reason: Higher billable requirements than almost any other firm in Boston; Horrible reputation (both culture and with clients) on the corporate side; Abusive reputation; Very long partnership track (12 years); Unlikely to hit billable hour requirements unless on the M&A team; Very low client retention, especially on the ecvc side; no centralized staffing; Poor support with very few paralegals (and very high paralegal turnover); Losing steam over the last few years.
