Most people get their experience by working at at least a few firms. I think it's good for developing a well-rounded POV and expertise. You didn't say how long you've been at your current firm, but unless you've developed a pattern of one year or less at several firms, I wouldn't worry too much.

Sorry, I should have been more clear - I just meant I'm cautious of going from one bad environment to the next, so I'm looking for opinions of A+P and whether it's a good move or not based on WLB, culture, etc. Thanks!!
