What if I want to join another department? I heard Disputes is doing well and on some very high profile matters and fairly well managed.

Disputes is an anomaly. Great hours. Great partners who leave you largely alone. Superstar juniors and senior associates who work very hard and technically brilliant. Superb team culture and great deals and rankings. Good progression to partnership too.

BAKERS / WONG & LEOW Managing partner is ANDREW MARTIN.

He heads MnA. Exodus of people from his department recently - go figure.

Has a knack for being snide and bordering on insulting to associates.

Cant lead a department but want to be hero lead the firm.

Heard that they are the fastest growing dept there and in past 3 yrs made most number of partners up. If you are lateral and senior enough there is no problem for them to parachute you in as a proper partner without expectation of porting book. So yes excellent dept.

How are the partners there? Can compare to the likes of CC and other places?

On par or even better. The full directors there are Silk standard and the younger partners are destined for future Silks. They already had 2 young partners who were called up as Judges so speaks volumes of the training there.

Woah the PR department of the firm coming out in full force to defend their reputations... hilarious

Mate the 5% was to catch up with the US firms 2020 fall bonus plus 5% is a joke compared to these. These are also 2021 spring and fall bonuses.
