RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at DLA Piper
Pros
Good working environment, friendly colleagues and partners. Good deals to learn from and senior management is generally aware of when additional support is required.
Cons
The only issue is that when the department is busy, you are in for late nights. Most certainly if a number of deals are on at the same time.
