Get the app Glassdoor. There’s too many reviews to screenshot for you here. Mixed reviews but there is an alarming amount of negative ones also citing high turnover, poor management and low pay. Most say typical biglaw billables, associate hours hacked often to please clients.
I have never worked there but two of my best from law school worked in Bay Area and SoCal offices. From what they told me, partners and senior associates were congenial but work expectation was the same as biglaw with 1900+ hour minimums and actual work level over 200 hrs a month for extended periods of time. For a salary that was 80k for 2017 grads. A lot of write offs for institutional and insurance defense clients also really hurt the bottom line. But both landed Amlaw 100/200 jobs that were 1.5~2x the wshb salary after 12-18 months.
I just had an interview with this firm. Billable hours are 2000 and starting salary was 90k for a first year associate. The partner I interviewed with was nice. I know someone who works there now who does not like it there at all and is looking to lateral.
