Pros

GT as a firm overall is great. The office is beautiful and upper management seem like great people.

Cons

Upper management does not do anything about complaints for certain departments. Certain departments are clearly unhappy and have made various complaints to HR about the actions of the attorneys (somewhat dubious legal advice/actions and clearly not caring at all about the well-being of the paralegals) but no action is ever taken. Paralegals are treated like a means to an end and then attorneys complain that no one sticks around/there is no loyalty. How can you inspire loyalty when you talk amongst each other about the low quality of work that is produced by their subordinates and expect paralegals to respect you? Frankly the most toxic work enviornment. No one is happy.

Pros

Flexibility in day to day schedule

Cons

The firm about faced on its core value of “Diversity is in our DNA”. Compensation is below industry for staff as the firm works to save every dollar for the partners but under pay staff. Further, the emails from the firms “executive chairman” show a lack of emotional intelligence as many of them are tone deaf to the circumstances of the day. The firm has clearly taken a shift from its socially liberal roots becoming more and more MAGA in nature.
