Venable Blue... Toxic environment, decent pay - Analyst Venable LLP Employee Review

Management sells you a lie when you join, but you soon discover that you've been dumped into a toxic environment. Top management is emotional and like to use fear as a motivator. They hire managers who are unqualified and help to further maintain the culture of treating people like dirt (unless you're one of the blatant favorites, who are promoted regularly and often at the expense of others). Overall there is an air of dictatorship and towing the line is the order of the day.
