Advice to law firm management:
The workplace culture changes constantly. There are always projects going on to change processes and roles. If you are not comfortable with changes, this Law Firm may not be suitable for you.
Pros:
Work culture, management and job advancement was great. The attorneys were a lot nicer than some other firms I've worked at. The culture was very positive and always someone was there cheering me on and boosting my confidence.
Cons:
Pay is not the best and at the best I can say it is somewhat below average. One more thing I want to point out that pay raises are not equal.

Advice to law firm management:
If there were a greater sense of Teamwork here I think people would pull together more. It would strengthen the results at the end of the day.
Pros:
This firm was a wonderful place to work for someone who is fresh out of college. It has a feel of being driving and supporting employees when given new tasks. There was an upbeat pace to the whole office that really motivates you.
Cons:
Deadlines were very strict and short. I had to give up a lot of weekends to get tasks done on time and was left without any help most of the time.

Diversity Write a review
We value diversity for the dynamic, vibrant spirit it brings to our organization and lives. We recognize that our own diversity helps us appreciate alternative points of view as we serve an increasingly diverse clientele. Greater than forty percent of our colleagues are women, people of color or openly gay. Diversity is not a long-range goal at Goulston & Storrs; it is our reality.
Women, racial and ethnic minorities, and gay and lesbian lawyers have served on virtually all committees within the firm. Our Diversity Committee meets regularly to address relevant issues regarding the firm's recruitment, retention, development and advancement of a diverse workforce.
While very proud of our progress in building diversity, we set our sights ever higher. The firm takes many steps to ensure that lawyers from diverse backgrounds receive excellent work, mentoring and training opportunities, and continually seeks to increase diversity awareness in the hiring process. In addition, we maintain an active speakers program to raise consciousness regarding the many ways that diversity enriches us personally and strengthens our organization.
