Good Firm but Lacks Upward Mobility
What did you not like about this institution?
There isn't all that much room to advance here, which I wish there wasbecause I enjoy the work. It's also very difficult to make partner. So this probably won't be a law firmthat you'd want to stay at for a long period of time.

What would you, or others, like to see changed at employer?
V&E should be more open about their interview process and post more opportunities for law students at a variety of their offices.
What were the things that you liked most about this employer?
V&E has a prominent name and they host the most welcoming receptions. I really enjoy meeting with all of their employees in lots of different locations.
What did you not like about this institution?
It is very difficult to get an interview at V&E, even if your law school has a relationship with them. They should do something about this.
People, departments, offices, products, services and whatever comes to mind that should be avoided at this institution
I have not had enough time to interact with the partners in order to be able to post a review about this, but I have enjoyed the ones that I have met briefly.
How could this employer run its business to employees or the public better?
I love that V&E is known as a Texas firm but it also has offices all over, and it also has a relationship with schools in cities where it doesn't have offices, such as Tulane.
