What is the salary like at Kennedys?

Conditions are good on the whole

Pay could be better, pension and other benefits

There are some nice team members. Good for a foot in the door.

Poor management, bullying is ignored, low pay, lack of flexibility.

People are nice, overall friendly firm, great worklife balance compared to other firms

Lack of diversity, not competitive pay compared to competitor firms.

General culture is good, people are usually friendly and sociable, good work/life balance

HR seemed incompetent and would never deliver what they said they would; level of assumed knowledge made it quite stressful; firm was totally focused on billable hours, despite constantly being told to undercut actual work; pay not great

- wfh is great - not micromangee

- work is very boring - inefficient tech - pay is very low for the amount of workload

Great offices, pay in regional offices has improved, and partners are very approachable. Hours can be long but decent for a panel firm. WFH is good and there are supportive arrangements for carers.

Office politics and favouritism are rife. You will go far if you know how to play the political game. Senior lawyers play juniors off against each other in a Hunger Games-style contest — alliances, betrayals, new alliances.

Good people, decent salary but also depends on your team.

Very strict with hours and must take on a business development role

Nice co workers and decent pay

Some partners are sound some are awful.

Great place to work Very team dependant but work and Partners in my team are great

Lower salary than market and benefits are minimal

Competitive salary and healthcare benefits.

I felt the partner above me was struggling with the workload and I quickly lost confidence in their ability to manage the team. I felt the partner / legal director of the team used bullying / mobbing tactics to make for a toxic working environment. Not a pleasant place to work.
