Pros

Some of the staff are nice people. Some of the attorneys are OK to work with. Some attorneys are deplorable in how they treat others, staff included.

Cons

The SF office if not a great place to work. Most of the staff are not skilled or properly trained and they try to get away with doing as little legal work as possible. This is largely in part to the lack of effectiveness and incompetence of the administration. Favorites are played and special treatment is shown. This firm truly does not care about paying their staff a living wage, either.
