Supportive environment but fast-paced with many systems - Legal Assistant Smart & Biggar Employee Review

Good, great, supportive, nice, respectful

no cons at all in my opinion

Pros: -Weekly classes by IP experts -People are generally nice with the exception of one pompous counsel guy -Social outings through the summer -Hybrid work flexibility -interesting projects if you reach out to partners -Top-notch clients

Cons: -Lack of transparency on hire back criteria for articling students -Significant high-turn over: only a few associates last more than 2-3 years -No meaningful performance feedback -Minimal training -No clear career track
