Pros & Cons
Work life balance, great support, great culture, great people.
Everyone in the firm is extremely supportive and has made transitioning into a legal role an enjoyable experience.
The people are really friendly, the training and mentoring and working with people at all levels.
Great work hours for the industry and flexibility to work from home.
Everyone at the firm is always open for providing an explanation of tasks and feedback.
The pay is on the lower end of the current market rate, but still competitive.
Occasional poor turnout in the office due to people working from home.
Slightly fewer graduate responsibilities - it's quite a lot for a small cohort to juggle responsibilities.
The Brisbane office is great, but as the office grows we are starting to run out of space.
Pay is not as competitive and no bonuses.

Career Prospects
Working with lawyers at all levels (juniors, Senior Associates, Special Counsel, Partners) and assisting with matter work and tasks, this could involve drafting documents, research, drafting advice, attending court and meetings.
The firm is committed to many corporate social responsibility causes, particularly in relation to equity, diversity, justice and environmental issues. I have personally helped with some of the pro bono work that the firm does for refugees seeking asylum in Australia.
Great awareness raised with respect to women, LGBTQIA+ community and indigenous communities. Lots of support programs provided through information sessions. Great gender diversity seen at work.
Informal training (i.e. learning on the job) works well - learning from more senior staff and doing actual work. Team-specific formal training is being developed to share knowledge and know-how between team members.
