Pros

Some technically fantastic solicitors and partners. Individuality seen as a plus unlike some other large firms, which makes for a fun working environment. Faithful to and proud of its northern roots whilst attracting big London clients. Interesting work.

Cons

Male solicitors appear to progress faster. Less able solicitors are promoted and retained which can be frustrating. Recruitment of external candidates to training contracts over highly regarded paralegals internally.

Pros

Nice team to work with. Support from team manager. Work is very busy which is good. Good social events. Only have to go in office two days a week.

Cons

Limited career progression and wages could be higher. Managers have clear favourites who will flourish whilst the rest of us remain stagnant.
