Great place to work but black box comp

Associate

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The people in the Texas offices are great to work with. I’ve heard about yellers at other firms and even other regions within GT, but everyone I work with is very reasonable (though with high expectations)

Cons

Black box comp, and no information about averages so no way to compare yourself against how others are doing.

GT is great for attorneys, bad for staff

Business Outlook

Pros

Good health insurance, great team in the GC’s office

Cons

Half the managers are incompetent and the ones that are good are prevented from doing their jobs by the worst director who isn’t an actual attorney. If you want to be treated like you’ve had a lobotomy and are incapable of doing the job you were hired to do, go for it. If you have the option of a different job, go for it.

Pros

I was in the Chicago office. People were much more collegial and supportive than other biglaw firms I've had pleasure of working at.

Cons

Technology and support resources are a bit lean vs some other biglaw outfits
