Hong Kong Office - Associate Goodwin Employee Review

In the esteemed Hong Kong, the opportunity to spearhead major deals comes surprisingly early, often due to our partners' dedication to enhancing their social media presence through doodling, or authoring inspiring books on their academic triumphs in a language they're already fluent in. It's an enlightening journey, where much can be learned from the constructive feedback of opposing counsels, who occasionally help identify the legal points missed by our own esteemed partners. Here, the art of excessive flattering and taking undue credit, a practice finely honed and exemplified by our senior partners taking client origination credit from counsel, is highly valued. It's important to note the emphasis placed on maintaining visibility within the firm, sometimes even more than the tangible output of your work. And fear not if your legal skills are lacking; the ability to ingratiate and undermine close allies are the true hallmark of success in the dynamic environment that is the Hong Kong office.
