Good managers make for a positive workplace - Residential Conveyancer PCS LEGAL Employee Review

Lots of work and staff benefits. Social. Staff benefits

Very pressurised and very target driven

- flexibility/ can WFH - Fee earners usually have two support team members - dress down days - good for fast progression (a girl came in from Asda and was a fee earner within a year)

- horrific work volumes. Each fee earner will have on average 400+ active files (about 60+ files a month) - usually all panel work (£250.00) legal fees and the most technical/ complicated matters ever for that price. - normally can’t charge any abortive fees. - it is quite literally a factory - there is no quality of service and have to rush to provide any type of legal advice/ report to client which leads to mistakes and claims. - if the pressure/ volumes was not enough each fee earner is quite literally pitted against each other which feels like the hunger games. They will send league tables/ stats ranking fee earners for billings/ calls/ exchanges/ completions and even call stats?! And unfortunately this seems to have turned fee earners into brutalists. - you are pressured to enter into referral agreements with local agents but the firm has such a bad reputation within the area and nationwide that they will simply laugh in your face if you approach them.
