Pros

The best part about working at Kennedys is the people. They are very friendly and helpful. The firm also has excellent benefits and pay.

Cons

However, there is one timekeeper in the Manhattan office who is the "white elephant in the room." You know there is already a problem when you're introduced to people and they ask who you're working for... You get, "oh boy," "good luck to you," and "ooooh."
