HFW improves employee satisfaction

25 July 2012

In the recently published Legal Week Employee Satisfaction Report 2012, HFW has for the second year running improved its ranking and overall score.

Now ranked 8th overall and scoring 6% higher than the all-firm average, employees cited "the quality of the work available"; the "vision – a clearly defined strategy"; and that the "work/life balance [is] generally good" as some of the best things about the firm.

In the 2012 survey, the firm beat or equalled the all-firm satisfaction average on ten of the 11 "most important" categories in the survey, which include quality of work; prestige; being valued; work/like balance; culture; billable hours expectation; client interaction; career communications; partnership prospects; salary and bonus.

This follows firm's excellent results in the latest Legal Week Client Satisfaction Report, which was published in November 2011, and which saw HFW climb the rankings to 5th place overall, and to take the top spot for major London-based firms outside the top 10.
