Great firm - Solicitor Chapman Tripp Employee Review

Good place to work. Nice environment and good work and mostly good people. Expect long hours and complex and challenging work if you are good.

Long hours for extended periods and high stress levels. Weekends are 99% protected.

Good culture, can be yourself, didn’t notice many terrible personalities, mostly good people

Pay isn’t as good as some boutique or smaller firms. Compensation system is lucky dip and your performance rating is based on your partner’s ability to argue for a higher pay - the majority see your first 4-5 years as of low value and most don’t get anything higher than the standard increase or a bonus.
