Pros and cons of working at Arnold Bloch Leibler
Pros
I started recently as a Graduate and I have been making meaningful contributions towards large and interesting deals from the beginning. The team culture is also great. Everyone is friendly, knows each other well, and makes an effort to work cohesively.
Workplace relations at our firm are not forced or artificial. Every person genuinely cares about each other and is willing to help one another out. I come to work every day happy to see my colleagues and work with them on otherwise extremely complex matters.
Really good graduate support, interesting work, and you don't feel like you're just another "cog in the wheel" because the graduate cohort is relatively small
The people at Arnold Bloch Leibler are down to earth, highly intelligent, supportive and display a genuine ethic of care towards their graduates. While the work at ABL can be challenging, it is highly intellectually stimulating and offers great reward. The matters we work on are very interesting.
The diverse range of people (both clients and other lawyers) that you get to work with! There's no one type of personality in the office, and everyone is very kind.
Cons
The firm's smaller size can mean a heavy workload as a matter is run by fewer people than might be involved at a bigger firm.
A lack of overseas secondment opportunities, however still go overseas independently to leading firms.
I feel like the firm needs to host more social events for its employees.
Some of the IT systems could be modernised.
Not much flexibility.
