Pluspunten

The people at KR are a huge plus - my coworkers (both attorneys and staff) were passionate about their jobs and had great senses of humor. I truly had fun with them and consider several of them friends. The work is also fascinating, important, and intellectually stimulating. Associates are quickly given a lot of responsibility and opportunities which, if you're up for it, is thrilling and rewarding.

Minpunten

The hours are often long, both because the firm is very busy and because the billable hour requirement is 1950. And the nature of the work is such that you can't always predict how busy you'll be (although this is true for all litigation). Because it is a plaintiff's side firm, the salaries are lower than defense firms with comparable hour expectations. However, KR's compensation is competitive with other plaintiff's firms and it has more resources than a typical plaintiff's firm.

Pluspunten

Really value-driven work, amazing people, very understanding, supportive, and interested in my learning over the summer. Worked on a lot of interesting projects.

Minpunten

Seem understaffed so entry-level associates seem very busy around court dates but good work life balance otherwise.

Pluspunten

Generous with pay and benefits, some groups have super nice people, support available when overloaded, great tech resources and applications to get the job done.

Minpunten

Unfortunately the cons outweigh all the great things about this firm. They flat turn their back to bullying obnoxious behavior despite the revolving door of many staff positions in the firm. They encourage staff to take on those that are allowed to attack and belittle them completely on their own once efforts to talk to them have failed. They just give up and look the other way after so many complaints. There’s the door if you don’t like it. Management seems absent and doesn’t want to make those heavy decisions that other firms would make in a heartbeat. Fire the offenders. Keep your valuable assets that promote a good work experience and all would pay off in the long run. But not this firm, they would rather just keep hiring when folks can’t take the daily anxiety any longer and all that training and experience walks. Nope, their philosophy is NEXT! which only enables the behavior. Too bad. It could be such a great place otherwise.
