Clifford Chance - Employee Reviews

See reviews for Clifford Chance from attorneys and other legal professionals below.

BCG Attorney Search speaks with attorneys about law firms every day. Here is what attorneys are saying:

Clifford Chance is a global international law firm with offices in Amsterdam and Hong Kong. The firm has a reputation for excellence and has been highly rated by former attorneys and other employees. Reviews of the firm have been overwhelmingly positive, with employees noting the work-life balance, understanding management, and great holiday parties. The Amsterdam office has been praised for its focus on people, creating challenging yet supportive and fun environment. The firm's exempt pay structure and generous paid time off are also highly rated.

However, there have been some negative reviews as well. One former employee complained of a toxic work environment and lack of training, as well as a feeling of being treated like a number. There was no response from Human Resources when these issues were brought up. Generally, Clifford Chance seems to have a great reputation for providing a supportive and challenging work environment, with a focus on creating a positive balance between work and life.
