      Pros

      DLA Piper offers great training and learning opportunities for its associates; large pay raises and bonuses when you meet the 2000 billable hour requirement.

      Cons

      Given the enormous size of the firm, you can quickly get lost in the firm politics if you do not have a supportive partner/sponsor. The old-boys network is still alive and well at the firm. Diversity and retention of diverse attorneys is lacking.

      Pros

      - Excellent pay and benefits - Flexibility with the hybrid schedule (depending on your practice group) - Easy to build community with other assistants and paralegals

      Cons

      - Easy to fall into burnout due to understaffing in assistant/paralegal positions - Be prepared for an unexpectedly higher or lower workload at any point. - D.C. location is particularly strict about the hybrid expectations - A bit disorganized as a whole when it comes to onboarding and training for your particular practice group.
