Wine and Cheese: Not All Pain at Some NYC Law Firms
It's just as we suspected: making the top seven Best Places to Work list involves cheese. From Jennifer Smith at the Wall Street Journal Law Blog:
Despite long hours and high pressure, working at a big New York City law firm can have some perks beyond the paycheck and prestige—at least if you’re at one of the seven that made this year’s Best Places to Work list from Crain’s New York Business.
Bingham, a four-time winner, offers a “collaborative spirit,” while Goodwin Procter has monthly wine and cheese gatherings and the option to jet early from the office if your workload allows, according to Crain’s. Alston & Bird employees meet each morning to brainstorm on how to make the company better.
