"I throughly enjoyed working at McGuireWoods. They gave me the tools I need to succeed and learn more about the industry. It is a firm that allows for flexibility and independence. Your success depends on you. It is a very large firm so there are many moving parts. For paralegals you have a direct supervising attorney that you report to daily and an administration that you have never met. The structure can be very confusing when it comes to annual reviews and asking Human Resources or administrative questions. Other then that the attorneys I worked with day to day were very upbeat and willing to work as a team. The firm atmosphere is serious because of the field of work but they do enjoy down time and trying to establish a pleasant atmosphere where people want to work."
