Associate Life
Vault’s Verdict: While it may not be the most open or social firm, associates appreciate Stroock’s excellent training opportunities and great clients.

Firm Culture & Associate Satisfaction
• “We get hands-on experience very early on, which is great. I think overall Stroock is a great place for training. We have very interesting clients that bring in challenging work. However, with respect to daily operations, I find the flow of information within the firm exceedingly convoluted; the administration has done little, if anything, to address associate anxiety and morale during this economic crisis. Despite their ‘commitment’ to keeping us informed, there has been very little transparency during the past year.” – midlevel associate
• “The current business environment has made things very challenging. That said, I enjoy working with the other attorneys in my practice group and I consider my work challenging and innovative.” – corporate associate
• “It's a very entrepreneurial environment. Associates are encouraged to interact with clients, develop their careers and to take advantage of various training opportunities.” – New York associate
