Pros

Absolutely zero pros to working at Dentons.

Cons

Working at Dentons was by far the worst decision I have ever made in my life. Management is verbally abusive and think it’s acceptable to scream and berate those who support them. The culture is awfully toxic - if you are reading this, please understand I am not some disgruntled employee, there is a reason the turn over is so high and even partners are leaving to go to competitors, or start their own firms. It is because this place will suck out your soul and leave your mental health completely depleted. Harassment and inappropriate misconduct from male partners is not taken seriously by Human Resources, and you will be punished for speaking up.

Pros

Everybody there cared about working together, no ambushing, The pay was great, hours and workload manageable, I loved this firm and would go back in a heartbeat! Shout out to IT and the Assistants - their cooperation is on the next level of the "united means success" the firm enjoys.

Cons

I didn't experience or hear about any in my 5 months there, and I was on-site 4-5 days a week. I only left because I needed to care for my Covid-stricken only child.
