Stay away if you want progression - Document Specialist Freshfields Employee Review

Management is inadequate. There is clearly some affinity bias and a bullying culture. The team is not valued and progressing is very difficult (it is obvious who will get promoted). Concerns are not fed back to higher management and whistle-blowing is reprimanded. The firm is also so obsessed with cost cutting on business support that they outsourced some work to Bratislava at a third of the cost. It is very demoralising for the team who believes there will be redundancies as a result.
