Good benefits, bad corporate atmosphere

Recommend

Pros

Very good benefits & time off

Cons

Terrible corporate culture and very long hours. I thought the atmosphere was quite toxic where you are a worker bee (only if you are not an attorney) and expected to work long hours

Decent remote work

Recommend

Pros

Fully remote work is the biggest reason why I enjoy working at Goodwin. However, my team is small and the communication with other teams and partners is not great. Also, the internal groups meant to support employees consists of people who either don’t know what they’re doing or don’t want to be helpful. Goodwin does offer some great perks and resources, though, like office services, law clerks, and gifts and goodies. But there is plenty to be improved.

Cons

Downsides, mainly: 1. Feeling like you are replaceable 2. Appreciation isn’t consistent. Some employees are very appreciative and some are downright rude 3. In-person events for non-attorneys lacking severely 4. Too much turnover. Granted this is found in all big law firms 5. Huge discrepancy in salary among similar levels.

Terrible -

Pros

Good benefits, competitive pay, free coffee, and peanuts.

Cons

Toxic work environment. The manager did not provide enough support. There was no diversity and inclusion. Think twice before you go here, and ask a lot of questions about how they will support you to develop in your role, and you should not have to stay if they are not supporting your growth in the company.
