NOT RECOMMENDED Read More About the BCG Attorney Search Law Firm Ranking System
This firm is not one we recommend due to our lack of trust and negative reviews.
Not Recommended law firms may have a history of complaints and negative reviews, possibly making them risky workplaces for associates and other employees. These firms may exhibit toxic work environments marked by a lack of coordination between departments and management, possible political strife, and different problematic dynamics. The management at Not Recommended firms may be unresponsive to concerns about human resources or political issues, leading to high employee dissatisfaction and, in some cases, negative experience. As a result, these firms may be considered undesirable choices for those seeking stable and fulfilling employment in the legal industry. Some law firms ranked Not Recommended or below are done so based on private information possessed by BCG Attorney Search. This information makes us nervous about recommending this firm to others until these issues are corrected.
We have been in this business for 25+ years, have spoken with countless attorneys from this firm, and believe that certain firms (most firms) err on the side of being more positive than negative places to work. There are also firms where the reports from attorneys are more negative than positive and have been for years. This does not mean every attorney has a negative experience at Not Recommended firms, every department is problematical, or every office is. Over time, cultural, management, and other issues result in an overall negative rating. We are careful about making these ratings only when confidential; ongoing adverse reports are confirmed by our experience with the firm and speaking with many attorneys there that seem consistently more negative than positive.

"A Critical Assessment of Weeks & Irvine, LLC : The Pros and Cons of Working at Weeks & Irvine as a Paralegal" - Anonymous
Cons: As a former paralegal at Weeks & Irvine, LLC in North Charleston, SC, I have a unique understanding of the company culture and work environment. My experience at the firm was marked by an excessive workload and a lack of support from management. The company expected me to perform at 100% capacity even when I was only recharged to 25%. This resulted in a complete lack of work-life balance and left me feeling overworked and undervalued.However, there were some positive aspects of working at Weeks & Irvine. For example, the company offered overtime pay and a 401k plan. Despite these benefits, I did not feel that they were enough to compensate for the lack of support and toxic work environment. My coworkers were often catty and looked to deflect responsibility, creating a hostile work environment
