Pros

A relaxed atmosphere that fosters familiarity. The ability to work in an low stress high satisfaction environment. Colleagues are helpful and respectful of others. The benefits the firm provides are on par with industry standards. Very understanding when one wants to take time off. Gym benefits are amazing for the firm employees.

Cons

Work can be somewhat tedious at times. The lack of communication between different levels of staff can sometimes lead to confusion and frustration. All in all there is somewhat good communication but there are times when there is breakdown and deadlines have to be met. The salary is a little below average but that is atrributable to the size of the firm.

Respected firm, objective bonus is nice on top of discretionary bonuses.

Cons

Lots of bureaucracy and the help that's promised is rarely actually available.

Pros

The Minneapolis office is a growing office with great opportunities for associates to get hands on involvement with depositions, motion practice and trials. I found my supervising partner to be a great mentor and person. She cared about me as a person and lawyer. I loved my time at Gordon Rees, but left for increased compensation.

Cons

Less than market pay. Senior associate laterals who were cliquey and sophomoric.
