Pros

A lovely friendly place to work with great colleagues. Entrepreneurial spirit, initiative and innovation is rewarded. Opportunity to work internationally.

Cons

Mish mash of different management styles and processes. Depending on who you work for depends on how good your experience of the firm will be. Not very advanced in fundamental business processes like marketing, HR, Finance.

Pros

Big growth plans, and very well defined specialties. The firm has a great brand and is very well know in the marketplace.

Cons

The department I worked in felt seperate from the firm overall, but I only worked there for a short time. The position I was hired for accomplished our goals quicker than expected

Pros

Great place to work! You really learn a lot a an intern and the attorneys provide you with engaging opportunities and assignments. I'd recommend it to anyone who is interested exploring a career in the legal industry.

Cons

No cons! The only con is there are so many free lunches due to firm-wide events that I probably gained a bit of weight during my time there!
