Pros

Some very nice, long-time staff, bagels and donuts on Fridays.

Cons

No overtime -- difficult when you receive work late in the day and are expected to complete it before leaving without working overtime. No communication -- you will be judged and blamed without a conversation even when you have asked questions and have received the wrong answers. Poor technology -- computers freeze and crash frequently, which means assignments take longer to complete and clients are being billed for this.

Pros

Respected firm, objective bonus is nice on top of discretionary bonuses.

Cons

Lots of bureaucracy and the help that's promised is rarely actually available.

Pros

The Minneapolis office is a growing office with great opportunities for associates to get hands on involvement with depositions, motion practice and trials. I found my supervising partner to be a great mentor and person. She cared about me as a person and lawyer. I loved my time at Gordon Rees, but left for increased compensation.

Cons

Less than market pay. Senior associate laterals who were cliquey and sophomoric.
