Pros

Blank Rome is a solid, team-oriented firm where people are approachable and genuinely want to help each other succeed. The work is interesting and challenging, but there is also a good sense of balance and respect for personal time. There are real opportunities to grow if you are proactive.

Cons

Things move quickly, so you need to be adaptable and ready to take initiative, which is great for self-starters, but might feel fast paced if you are used to a structured environment.

Thank you for your feedback. Many have found the flexibility of our dress code to contribute to our positive working environment. We are also committed to compensating each person fairly and competitively, and to rewarding each individual for their contributions. We are proud to consistently receive top rankings in The American Lawyer’s Midlevel Associates Survey, which examines a variety of aspects of job satisfaction including compensation and benefits, training and guidance, relationships with partners and other associates, interest in and satisfaction level with the work, the firm’s policy on billable hours, and management’s openness about firm strategies and partnership chances. If you are employed by the firm, we encourage you to reach out internally to discuss any thoughts directly so that we can address them appropriately.
