hello everyone - strongly considering TKQP as a place to train at. Given that our TC is gonna be one year long, I'm quite worried about firm culture and mentorship. Anyone has experience there and/or heard stuff about the firm? Last post about the firm was 2018 so a bit outdated.
Also if anyone has updated salary information on TKQP (or yardsticks based on comparable firms) would be great.

I have two close friends who both work there. I personally have interned there myself. I would say firm culture is generally okay but also depends on which department you go into. Liti is their bread and butter and it looks like they are headed into general liti for the foreseeable future with a partner about to leave and take their entire dept with them.
I would say it's very solid mid-tier, so definitely better than all the sinking ships outside the B4 but not at the same level and probably fighting with the other mid-tiers.
The firm also had a scandal a few years back, with the influencer's husband who was accused by Charles Yeo being from there.
