Improving the firm's commitment to work-life balance would be a great step in the right direction for this firm. Employees are its most valuable resource overall.

You will have all the support you need. There is no excuse not to deliver results at Ober Kaler. You should be prepared from day one to produce. Your clients demand nothing less than the best.

Sometimes the emphasis on work and perfection leads to long hours in the office and burnout by staff. Make sure you are not among them. Some staff members have suffered health problems from stress.
