Great place to build a career

The good things
Highly-skilled and knowledgeable colleagues across the organisation. Opportunities for career growth within your team and achievement is generally recognised. Commitment to eliminating negative and harmful behaviour is demonstrated, not just given lip service.
The challenges
Excellence is only recognised when relative to other team members; if you're part of a high performing team, then opportunities for bonuses are reduced. Office politics can be difficult to navigate, especially in larger offices.

Like no other Law firm I have ever been at. Proof that not all Law firms are what people think!

The good things
Great culture, friendly people, immaculate offices, great social events, great induction and training compared to other top tier firms I have worked at.
The challenges
None so far. I can't foresee anything coming up any time soon.

The team is absolutely lovely and the firm offers a fanatatic start point for junior LAs to learn in a global law firm. However management will need to improve and suggestions of others should be acknowledged and executed.

The good things
The team as individuals are lovely but the work, the system and processes is inefficient.
The challenges
The systems, processes and management will need to improve. All team members need to be more appreciated and rewarded for their hard work and suggestions to better the workplace should be acknowledged and executed.

Mixed experience in stressful environment

The good things
Some managers cared and staff outside your department were nice
The challenges
Competitive within the department made it difficult to fit in with colleagues if your work was praised. Casual work meant no job security. New diversity policies were code to behave. Staff lived in fear of HR.
