Cooley was a great place to work, until it wasn't. - Recensione dipendente - Marketing presso Cooley

Not a great firm for staff. There are too many directors and too many managers. The firm is top heavy and needs highly effective leaders, not more mediocre leaders. In-fighting at the C-level, distrust at the director level and confusion at the manager level. New directors/managers join the firm and are quickly immersed into the bureaucracy of the firm which prevents them from effectively managing teams. High performing staff are overwhelmed, carry the majority of the workload and receive very little recognition when it comes to merit & bonus increases. Merit & bonus decisions are made at the C-level which directly correlates to the amount of face time you have and not a representation of employee production.
