N/A--- I think Management is making efforts to ensure we are listening to the feedback of our attorneys and staff. Overall, the Firm has a leadership team designed for success!

Although fairly new to the Firm, my time here has been wonderful. I am thankful to be part of a Firm that truly values teamwork, diversity, creativity and exceptional client service. The Firm offers a professional, laid-back atmosphere with a flexible work schedule. The Partners and other Firm leadership are open to new ideas and suggestions from associates and staff. This is a Firm that wants you to love your job and where you work! When you love your job, we all will accomplish great things!

With any large Firm, communication between multiple offices can be challenging. We have some areas of improvement related to technology software. However, the Firm is making a conscious effort to improve in these areas.

N/A ---- I have nothing to add in this section. I feel all the Partners have been great to work with and look forward to what 2019 holds for the Firm.

I think the Firm's retention rate and average tenure of 10 to 15 years speaks for itself! I value the Firm's work/life balance and efforts to create a Firm that puts the needs of its attorneys and staff first.
