I would not recommend Addleshaw Goddard

Pros - A lot of opportunities if you play the game right for good work. Most people are lethargic due to being overworked and stressed, therefore there is great opportunities to navigate as many people aren't fighting for anything anymore
Cons - The upper management is a clique, they do not care the least bit about their trainees or associates. They could not care any less for encouraging and advancing.

Addleshaw Goddard Good Name, bad experience

Pros - Having AG on your CV can open up a lot of doors in the industry
Cons - As a paralegal, your line manager is unqualified and rarely has a detailed enough knowledge of the work you undertake to provide you with relevant guidance. Paralegals are often used as mass admin for projects rather than given opportunities to gain knowledge.

Addleshaw Goddard not pleasant place to work.

Pros - Some genuinely interesting work if you're in the right place at the right time. Generally a nice bunch of co-workers
Cons - 18k is the starting salary and is the salary you will likely stay on regardless of performance or billable hours. Bonuses, not likely your friends in other industries are getting 10% bonuses and yearly pay rises.
