Employees are respected and concerns are always considered with an eye toward improvement. Management has always had an open door policy. Plenty of camaraderie, food and other perks. True teamwork! Challenging work assignments with minimal supervision. Have worked for other law firms and this one is as good as you get.ConsToo few to think of. More attorney participation in performance evaluations is needed.

The firm has taken promising steps in supporting the diverse, young leaders who are emerging as practice group and committee chairs.

A great bunch of people, many who have worked at Ryan Swanson for several years. There is a lot of trust in the employees to work efficiently and collaboratively, with minimal micromanaging. The Puget Sound Business Journal has listed the firm among the "Best Workplaces" list for 4 or 5 straight years, with recent high marks for minorities as a share of staff and women as a share of staff. Recent hires have been a boost for the collegial culture that has existed since I started working here over ten years ago.

Ryan Swanson has a committee that focuses exclusively on organizing fun and engaging events for attorneys and staff. They also have a sabbatical benefit for all employees (not just lawyers) that is unmatched.
