Avantages

The Melbourne office has a great culture and a great office. The facilities team are great at making everyone feel welcome. Particularly given that there is minimal business services support compared to the Sydney office.

Inconvénients

Poor management from partners. Particularly with change management. This includes poor communication of upcoming changes, mainly with IT. They are very ‘behind the times’ with IT and Diversity and Inclusion principles, which they don’t seem to care about. The Partners do not work together well and are poor at communicating with their staff. They do not reward or recognise their non-legal staff enough, particularly when winning industry awards and completing large projects. The Melbourne office has grown significantly over the last 12 months but the business services departments have not been given any further resources or support in any way.

Avantages

Your experience in Defense group is highly dependent on who your managing partner is. Good work-life balance. Manageable case load. Fellow associates generally nice and willing to help. Secondment program allows you to take a week long work trip to another Kennedys office anywhere in the globe and learn about foreign legal system. Depending on your team, you can handle some really interesting cases that even go outside of ID realm.

Inconvénients

Support staff sucks. Management doesn't want to invest in support staff. Pay is not the best. NY firm is a bit siloed. Its still ID work so it can get miserable at times. Sometimes firm culture can be a bit catty - lots of people talking behind your back and you gotta watch what you say to certain folks.
