Pros

The firm is diverse and seems to be friendlier than other big firms.

Cons

Although the culture seems great on the surface, they are more passive aggressive or simply less transparent about certain things. Difficult/almost impossible to get work as a lateral (spoke to many others who felt the same).

It is Cravath Salary Scale

Cons

it has the highest turnover in Boston Big Law for a reason: Higher billable requirements than almost any other firm in Boston; Horrible reputation (both culture and with clients) on the corporate side; Abusive reputation; Very long partnership track (12 years); Unlikely to hit billable hour requirements unless on the M&A team; Very low client retention, especially on the ecvc side; no centralized staffing; Poor support with very few paralegals (and very high paralegal turnover); Losing steam over the last few years.
