Pluspunten

At first, it felt like a welcoming place, but over time the environment became overly micromanaged and overly focused on minor details. Even when the overall quality of work was strong and exceeded expectations, the feedback often centered on small issues—such as formatting or footnote placement—which were treated as major shortcomings, while the overall quality and substance of the work were overlooked.

Minpunten

The root cause of the problem was the lack of meaningful work, combined with excessive micromanagement. Much of the effort went into managing insecurities at the partner level rather than focusing on producing quality legal work.

Pluspunten

The pay is good. I had a wonderful pair of mentors while working here, who cared about me as a person as well as a professional.

Minpunten

Newer partners continued to act like associates, giving away very little of their work for fear of not having enough. This made it hard to get additional work in slow times. The partners had consistent workloads, but the associates had a very small number of people who would actually provide work which made the amount of work available extremely unpredictable, instead of having multiple faucets pouring work in the associate bucket, it was really one or two partners only.
