Akin Gump Rocks!

I have been working at Akin Gump

ProsWork/Life Balance. Always willing to give me my earned time off for my child.

ConsThe recent turnover of a lot of partners. We haven't quite recovered. There seems to be so many empty offices and we will really need to fill them.

Advice to Senior ManagementWe know the economy is in turmoil and layoffs are inevitable, but what is the real criteria? Performance reviews, longevity, etc. I personally think that the summer associate program needs to be really trimmed back. Way too much money is spent on this program. I know we have to compete with other firms, but in this economy I think it is possible to cut the program.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
