Advice to law firm management:
As the environment is demanding so achieving deadlines can be challenging. You need to work hard in order to please your supervisors at this firm.

Pros:
The time I spent at Perkins Coie LLP was characterized by an enormous amount of learning and hard work for exceptional managers and clients. I was continually challenged to stretch into new roles and felt valued by leaders. The Management expects the best but they compensate accordingly and provide benefits on par with that. So I must say that excellent pay and excellent benefits.

Cons:
The work is demanding and considers necessary trade-offs with other priorities. Work culture is very professional and sometimes the most mundane tasks are like complying with law.

Advice to law firm management:
This firm should get rid of early Fridays and have more consistent hours during the week so employees don't feel burnt out.

Pros:
This firm has a fun atmosphere and people get along really well. I also like that every week we get out of work early so we can see our family and friends.

Cons:
The issue with getting out early on Fridays is that the rest of the week is usually very busy. Some days we work more than 12 hours and I am simply exhausted when I come home. I like the early day but would rather have a more consistent work week.

Advice to law firm management:
I would like to see our current management team revised with possibly some new replacements to be available to take care of issues that arise in the office.

Pros:
The work environment is excellent as everyone is very helpful and experienced. The benefits are awesome as well and everyone really cares about their clients.

Cons:
I have found the firm to be somewhat slow in terms of how quickly they resolve issues that are occurring around the office. I have found this to be mostly related to our current management team though.
