There are worst places but this one isn't the best either - Associate Wilson Elser Employee Review

My partners are not very nice, they micromanage, I can't even send out an email without getting approval of same by my partners. Career progression can be easy here because everyone leaves but personally, my team's partners do not want to mentor or sponsor associates. Firm billables are 1950 which is high for insurance as insurance carriers have strict guidelines and you can't bill for everything. I would stay away if you can, once you get into insurance defense, it's hard to get out. And other attorneys don't view insurance defense attorneys as smart as they are thought to handle non complex cases. So avoid insurance defense and this firm if you can.
