Blank Rome reviews

Blank Rome has been actively making steps to be more competitive in the larger legal market, yet the DC office still has a tightknit feel. I felt comfortable going to any of the directors, partners, or Office Chairs with any concerns. There are opportunities to get involved with the firm-sponsored events outside of just your position (like community service and office socials) which make firm/life balance more worthwhile and I highly recommend. It's easy to sit behind a desk all day and just do your job, but it's the people - staff and attorneys - that make Blank Rome a worthwhile place to work. If you advocate for yourself professionally, and prove yourself an important team member, Blank Rome does invest in your professional development with promotions/compensation. I was given every opportunity for projects that I expressed interest in. I felt like management valued my experience and professional opinion. Despite leaving, I will have colleagues, mentors, and friends from Blank Rome for my entire career.
