Big Law Hours and Expectations, But Mid-Size Firm Pay

Associate attorney

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Most attorneys and support staff here are nice people. The firm embraces flexibility in terms of working remotely and start/end times.

Cons

Billable hour requirements exceed those of many Big Law firms, yet the pay is much lower than what one would receive at a Big Law firm. This firm also specializes in insurance law. The work is demanding and not very rewarding.
