      Business outlook

      Pros

      Great pay with 6 month salary increase 1950 billables with 50 hours of CLE counting towards it. Free gym access and access to building amenities.

      Cons

      Interpersonal relationships and drama. Terrible, rude, and idiotic management. All of this was so horrendous that I quit.

      Dynamic law firm with supportive environment with growth opportunities

      Attorney (partner)
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Wilson Elser SF is provides a supportive, dynamic, and collegial environment. It has all the benefits of being part of a large firm (resources, training, opportunities for growth), as well as the smaller firm feel that is relaxed, friendly, and professional.

      Cons

      The firm's fast recent growth, and lack of professional continuing legal education budget. Although, the firm does support CLE and business opportunities, it is not as clear cut about what to do.
