Skadden Arps Reviews
-
Pros
The work is cutting edge and you get the opportunity to work with the best and brightest in their respective fields. The compensation and benefits are top of the market.
Cons
The hours are long and the pace can be grueling. Some partners are better managers than others, and some partners only work with certain associates.
Advice to Senior Management
The management at the firm level is excellent. Firm management needs to take the initiative to insure that that same level of excellence filters down to the practice group leaders
