Great place to work - Senior Associate Lewis Silkin Employee Review

I worked at Lewis Silkin for several years and left with a genuine appreciation for the firm’s people-first culture and professional standards. Colleagues were collaborative and approachable, creating a supportive environment where teamwork and knowledge sharing were encouraged. The firm invested in training and practical tools, which made it easier to deliver high-quality client work and develop new skills. Leadership was visible and pragmatic, setting clear priorities and supporting career development through constructive feedback and mobility opportunities. Work-life balance compared favourably with other firms in the sector; flexible working and understanding managers helped manage peak periods without sustained burnout. Operational processes were well established, enabling efficient event delivery and strong cross-team collaboration with BD, marketing and operations.

The sandwiches in the cafe were pretty soggy

Flexible working Non hierarchical Pleasant environment Great London office Strong leadership Open to new ideas and process changes

Support staff are often paid less than market rate. Seems to be a trade off for flexible working and a friendly environment.
