Pros

I've been working here for about 4 years now and the firm has grown quite substantially. They have 3 fully functional floors. Amazing Canteen. Once you're in the good books, you could be a devil's child but stay in the good books forever. Being a Gujrati in this firm is an added benefit.

Cons

The HR himself is the biggest challenge working at this firm. The firm revolves around him including the proprietor. The HR hires good looking women and the youth irrespective of their talent and forces them into a resignation as and when he pleases. Most of the Advocates in here are fresh advocates, for they can be hired at a negligible amount. No training whatsoever is provided. Everything is gotta be learnt by your own self being constantly nagged by a partner who himself doesn't know whether he's coming or going. The Upper Management is completely lost. To the extent that a couple of them can't speak English. A Partner in this firm being a Law Firm itself doesn't even have a Sanad and has a team of about 7 people that he handles. The firm currently (In the lockdown period) is giving the Advocates question papers to solve for they don't want to spare the kids even for a day. The firm mentally harrows you and if you ain't "friends" with the HR, they shall do anything to frame you and get you out. The salaries paid are way too low and increments don't exceed Rs. 4000 maximum unless again you're good friends with the HR.

Pros

Leaves are flexible if you want to take for 1-2 days. More days than that you might not be allowed. Learning curve is there but it comes with lots of abuses/shouting/public humiliation from the so called Associates. Sometimes if they don’t like you for their own reasons, they will not even assign you any work.

Cons

Shouting towards new Associates and interns from so called Senior Associate is normalised in this organisation with no support from senior management/partners. Work is not streamlined structurally, sometimes if we are working in the same project, the other older Associate gate-keeps the information from the other co Associates & the gatekeeper take credits for that & if they need to blame someone for the project they both worked on, they directly blame the new joinee or even the interns. Also the pay is extremely low, revision of salary & designation usually doesn’t happen at all. Inclusion & diversity is something they usually aren’t aware of as well. Negative gossiping, questionable remarks on work towards new joinee/interns by Older Associates is seen even after completion of work & image tarnishing by Senior Associate towards other colleagues is seen here. Also a biased culture is seen here. Anxiety is always at peak in everyone’s mind.
