Pros

Very relaxed and friendly environment. Most of the staff are warm with the odd exception which is understandable. There is relatively prestigious work to get involved in if you are in the right team at the right time.

Cons

The administrative support facilities are often lacking. There is a lack of executive transparency, particularly regarding remuneration and other ancillary policies. The firm is in the process of considering an ASX listing which added significant costs pressures which were downstreamed to fee earners and administrative staff alike.

Pros

The firm has a strong and growing client base, is expanding rapidly, and offers a recognised brand name that can enhance future career opportunities.

Cons

A firm that positions itself as a challenger to top-tier practices but lacks some of the associated perks — such as complimentary breakfasts or regular social events. Social activities are generally limited to end-of-financial-year and Christmas gatherings. The environment is highly commercial, with a strong focus on settling matters and generating revenue rather than mentoring or developing junior staff.
