High-quality work and clients
The long hours โ although these are still more manageable than other top-tier law firms.
Salary is falling behind other top-tier law firms, but I do feel the work-life balances are sufficient compensation.
Limited networking/business development opportunities for juniors.
Graduates feel disappointed they will not be able to work within a team that is a key reason they aspired to come to Minters
My only issue is that we hot desk, meaning a different desk each day so we donโt have the opportunity to make or personalise our own space.
