Former Employee Former Employee Mr. San Francisco

Advice to law firm management:
Treat your employees with respect.

Pros:
Employer pays good portion of health insurance

Cons:
ABUSIVE!!! horribly rude emails sent constantly, no training is provided and you will be berated when you make mistakes, they dont advise you have to pay for parking in the interview, NO MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT so no one to report their mistreatment to! Definitely NOT a team atmosphere. Working for this firm WILL change you and how you view the work you do - save yourself, do not apply!!!!!

Partners to Avoid and Why:
Phyliss Hafner - incredibly rude and belittling, does not read emails properly so you will never receive a straight answer and she WILL make you feel like you have no idea how to do your job Donna Burden - will berate and insult you in emails, does not care about office concerns and will blame new employees for as much as she can
