Pros

Overall good firm, hours/benefits, office culture

Cons

In my opinion, it would be a great firm if they got the manager out. Horrible to the staff. Micro managed and talked behind your back. If they didn't like you, out you go.

Pros

None that I can think of

Cons

Stay away. Management seems to care more about jeans Fridays (for $5) than it's employees' happiness.

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.
