Description of Munger, Tolles & Olson

For more than 50 years, Munger, Tolles & Olson attorneys have been partnering with clients on their most important and complex cases and deals. We have purposefully maintained a low-leverage environment and eschewed the high-leverage model adopted by many firms. We believe our one-to-one overall partner-to-associate ratio instills a work ethic that results in a cost-effective approach for our clients.

A very good place to work, with a great culture

I worked at MT&O from 2000 to 2003. It was an excellent firm as far as diversity of practice areas, size of staff (and client base), quality of partners/attorneys, etc. The firm's culture is very collegial; it has great camaraderie among its lawyers, paralegals, receptionists, secretaries, etc. There are some "old school" practices that can be difficult to navigate if you're not used to them. For example, when filing documents or correspondence, there were boxes for each letterhead style…

Pros
  • Strong group dynamic
  • Great attorneys with vast expertise in complex matters
Cons
  • Some problems

Great team and excellent project management

The best thing I liked about MT&O was how they took time to understand what we needed from them as opposed its just hiring someone off of an agency database because it’s easier or cheaper (usually). They were very efficient at turning around projects which helped us save money. One area where there could be improvement is communication between staff members; some issues came up during implementation but no specific person stepped forward - so had zero insight into why this happened since…

Pros
  • Honest advice
  • Knowledge base when questions arise for new lawyers in our office.
  • Good project management skills/communication with co workers
  • Flexible hours worked out well given my schedule.
  • Competitive salary that included overtime pay if reached regularly throughout year end holidays etc.No need worry you can miss something important here too!!
