Pros
Was a top ten best place to work in Dallas for the 7 years I was there. I sat on many Committees and the partners were very dedicated to core values and diversity efforts. The staff was great, top to bottom. We had great MPs who probably worked too hard, but had an incredible impact. The COO had many big successes. We had top-40 profit growth.
Cons
Had some struggles with cyclical work and international growth. But I think that's par for a corporate law Firm. Firm put ethics first, so that was a short term economic drag with a long term pay off.
