Pros

Some cutting edge work at the top of the IP/life sciences market

Cons

- Partners are very old school and don't welcome conversations on progression/junior BD - Lacks diversity despite internal push - Too easy to coast and not push yourself to be busy - Not a great training programme for qualified lawyers and knowledge is often assumed when it should not be.
