Legal Counsel Reviews
What is it like working as a Legal Counsel?
February 2023
Abbrasive, Pressurised environment.
Legal Counsel in Pretoria:
Pros: Passionate people trying to make a difference
Cons: The amount of damage done to the business by reckless managers
September 2022
Safe place to raise a family.
Legal Counsel in Valencia:
Pros: Not crowded compared to other parts of Los Angeles. Pretty clean.
Cons: A bit out of the way in terms of restaurants, museums, entertainment, etc.
September 2021
The first legal counsel of the Company.
Legal Counsel in New Delhi:
Pros: Being the only legal counsel,setting up and nurturing the legal aspect.
Cons: Workload as I am the only person in the legal depth
April 2021
Sunny, Bourgeois, and Walkable.
Legal Counsel in Campbell:
Pros: Being in a low-key part of southern Silicon Valley is nice because we don't have the gridlock associated with more typical Silicon Valley tech locations. There are lots of lunch break and happy hour options in downtown and Pruneyard Campbell. Weather is good. Lunch isn't super cheap at the local options, but the options are good.
Cons: Expensive area to live means your paycheck doesn't go as far as you'd think. Lots of trees in Campbell means you gotta wash your car a lot. As of April 2021, very touchy area regarding COVID restrictions, which is mostly good and but can also be bad to the extent people get fearful or politically legalistic about it
April 2021
Working in Cape Town.
Legal Counsel in Cape Town:
Pros: Cape Town is a place where you can find balance between life and work.
Cons: Traffic and congestion has become worse over the years.
May 2020
Legal Counsel in Dallas:
Winstead is a great firm with a top notch group of senior partners (shareholders) that built it to be what it is today. The problem is the level of knowledge, professionalism and superior lawyering does not trickle down to the younger partners or associates. I dont see a robust future for the firm but it still leads in the real estate transactions practice for the time being. The shift from good lawyering to bill bill bill no matter what is unfortunate and is not in the best interest of the clients.
November 2019
Good place for development.
Legal Counsel in Jakarta:
Pros: Relatively high independency at work.
Cons: Not having a good coordination between departments.
