Vantaggi
Great pedigree, one of the very best if not the best legal recruitment firm out there. Extremely professional and highly credible individuals across all levels at the firm
Svantaggi
Many of the Directors are ex lawyers and the type of environment you walk into is more law firm, less recruitment firm. The 'fun', 'celebrate success' type atmosphere of the larger (less mature perhaps) firms is well and truly gone. You go to SSQ not to make friends per say but to work hard and make very good money if you're good. suffice to say if you aren't billing at least 350k + per year, you will get very little recognition and feel pretty average. SSQ much stronger in law firm to law firm moves than in-house. It's dog eat dog there so be prepared for that
