Good Summer Experience - Summer Associate Speed, Seta, Martin & Trivett Employee Review

The people, environment, etc. were all wonderful. It was hard to leave.

The compensation and benefits could be better, and a bonus structure would have incentivized me to stay. Once you hit a certain level, it really flattens out/is stagnant unless you're selected for partnership (and they have tons of partners already).

They don’t micromanage their employees

They expect you to work Big Law hours but don’t want to pay you Big Law money, they don’t have the tools necessary to foster the growth and development of young attorneys (i.e., no feedback on work product, no teaching workshops), they had no protocols in place for COVID (no working from home, no requirement for employees to wear masks in the office), and some paralegals spend hours gossiping with each other about other employees in the office
