Pros

pay is ok - not great but better than other firms I have been at. Availability to training for computer programs that you may not have otherwise been trained on.

Cons

benefits - insurance leaves a lot to be desired. Within the last year it feels like we are all now on the Seyfarth version of Big Brother. Everyone walking on egg shells - don't feel like anyone has job security anymore. Definitely not the same place it was when I started. Definitely doesn't care about the "work/life balance" as they claim to and have been recognized for. There is no such thing - they say the firm supports it but they most certainly do not, especially for women. It is sickening to see emails sent out by management about being named a top firm for this when in fact it couldn't be further from the truth. Local HR department very unresponsive - department has no one with any HR degree. There is no sense in complaining about anything because if you are not in the click - you have a better chance of winning the lottery than something ever being done about your complaint. Just not the same place it used to be.

Pros

GREAT atmosphere in the Sac office. Everyone is congenial, polite, and friendly. Great pay and atmosphere.

Cons

Very stern on 3 days in office policy, even if staff is sick. Also PTO and sick time are in the same bucket.
