Are you asking because you have an offer there and want to plan? Or because you’re using this to choose as between firms? Cannot stress enough how insignificant this should be if the latter.
I dont think anyone in the know would agree with you that billing is easier at kirkland than a peer firm without the negative environment at kirkland simply because the food is free. I dont think that claim is totally outrageous, but I imagine very few people think free food at kirkland compensates for the hostile work environment it is well known for. It softens the blow, sure, but given the alternative options, you wouldnt take kirkland over a peer simply for free food. I guess im curious how this plays out. What firms do you consider Simpsons peers such that the free food at Simpson would be the deciding factor over that peer firm? Does it matter by practice group to you? Trying to figure out our disconnect as to the importance of it.
Don’t listen to the other commenters on here. STB is one of only a few firms to offer free lunch and breakfast every day. This basically leads to you getting paid materially more in compensation if you calculate the value of it ($5-8k), not to mention all the time saved
And the food (in New York) isn’t bad either!
$2500 tech stipend I believe. Believe refreshed every two years (but would double check). Tech stipend can be used for a phone. You can have a firm issued android without using the tech stipend, but if you opt out you get $50/month.
Agree it’s every 3 years. Pre pandemic the stipend was only available post probation but not sure if it’s been relaxed now.
