Sidley Austin Employee

"I worked at Sidley for 12 years. Over the last three years, the IT group in the corporate office, Chicago, went down the drain as the respect they gave to the staff in the outer offices. The End Users Services Director in CH had a few choice staff and everybody else were toast in her eyes. This was not a way to run a department. You began to feel like you needed to be doing something different because you did not fit in her schema. The CIO even does not have a grip on the department's faults."
