Owners are greedy and it hurts the whole firm
The owners care only about money, they expect the attorneys to put in 70 plus hour work weeks with poor life balance and even worse pay. This is why they practically have no junior attorneys in the firm. The associates are hired for one job and then forced into another role with no monetary compensation and little to no appreciation. They suck money out of clients like a hoover vacuum and demand the attorneys bill at a ridiculous rate and time. They have this grand vision of being a world class law firm but don't understand that they need to invest in their staff and attorneys to get that done. The high turnover rate is all you should see to know not to waste your time
Team Oriented Environment
The firm rewards hard working individuals and is always looking to update policies to improve the workplace. You get to work with some talented individuals and everyone plays a role in the firm's continued growth. Employees are recognized on a weekly basis when quality work is performed and goals are hit.
Pros
Great team members, Clear Company Vision
Loved it, hated it due to nightmare management
CEO is a man to respect, unfortunately a lot of things go on behind his back.
Culture is back stabbing
The administrative manager has his favorites and they are the ones who thrive.
He sets people up for failure that he does not like
He delays reviews and only provides on time reviews to those that he wants to progress.
He blatantly lied about many things
Prejudice of older workers

not my favorite place to work
The work environment was very stressful.

Work quality did not seem to be valued.
Management had very little interest in people.
negative qualities were emphasized over positive qualities.
The offices were beautiful and the staff very helpful. The benefits and salary were commensurate with other employers. Time off was generous. In certain areas of law, the firm is the leading expert.

Fast paced job with advancement opportunities
Ive been with Tully Rinckey for almost a year now and there is a tremendous amount of growth and opportunities for advancement. It truly is one of the largest law firms in the nation and one of the fastest growing. Always expanding and looking for opportunities. The founders are amazing men to work for, very business minded, but also kind towards their employees. The hardest part is learning the work. It's a lot to learn and a lot to know, but if you don't know the answer there is always someone to help you find the answer. Management is fantastic and the attorneys are helpful and passionate about their practice areas.
Pros
Comp time, and great PTO
Cons
Bi-weekly pay checks, expensive insurance.
Great place, if you're willing to work hard and learn
When I first started here, I did not really know what I to expect. I had never worked for a larger firm before, and I had only little solo experience in a single area of law. It was not long though before TR recognized my potential and involved me in many other practice groups. Since then, I have grown in practice areas that I did not even know I had an interest in. My development as an attorney is beyond what I could have hoped for, and I owe much of it to the willingness of the other attorneys at the firm to take a collaborative role in the development of those around them, including myself. This is something you do not see enough in modern practice.
The moral of the story with this firm is if you work hard and show a desire to learn, you will reap rewards and advance your practice and your career. This firm is a great fit for both young attorneys looking to develop, and established lawyers looking to further themselves.

Pros
Flexable hours, understanding management, lots of practice areas to focus in on
Cons
Hard work is required
Forward thinking and highly challenging work environment
A firm that encourages growth and learning, Taking your future in to your own hands is the key to thriving here. Working as part of a team is not just a mantra with Tully Rinckey employees. Some days we work very very hard, some days we have more time to laugh together. Either way in the evening when I leave my office I'm happy with the choice that I've made to be part of something so truly unique.
Pros
Honest communication, Tons of learning potential, visionary leadership
Cons
Honest communication is sometimes hard to hear-but that is what growth is about.
Not your average law firm!
Fast paced environment, but very rewarding. The team atmosphere makes any task or objective attainable. Supporting our attorneys is easy when you have owners willing to invest in the teams around you. Well staffed Legal Support, Finance, Marketing, Recruiting and Client Relations departments. More importantly, we all work together as we are focused on the same goals and objectives. The structure and organization make it easy to hit the ground running.
Pros
Great people, always growing, structured and organzied
Cons
None...you get what you give.
Fast Paced and High Volume
A typical day of work began at 8am and ended at 5pm. Quite often I was so loaded with work that I would clock out for lunch as required, but would often work through lunch as well. Between generating invoices for attorney review, editing per attorney instructions, and mailing final drafts - client billing took three full days. Thursday and Friday were left to catch up on collections, and A/P duties.
Pros
Benefits, hours
Cons
pay relative to workload, no room for advancement
We want to help you find great companies. Help us be the best!
Do these reviews help you learn more about working at Tully Rinckey PLLC?
Syracuse office is horrible
I applied to Tully and Rinckey as a civil litigator. Halfway through the interview process the position switched to an area with which I was unfamiliar. I agreed to learn the area with their help and their knowledge that I was inexperienced with this area. I got one day of training and then was expected to just know everything from there. Despite having a 5 year employment contract, they worked loopholes and let me go only 3 months later stating they needed someone with more experience and didn't have time to train me. Since then I've heard they let half the office go and are refilling the positions. Very high turnover rate.
Happy to be Working Here
I have a considerably good benefits package in addition to working in a great office culture. Everyone here is respectful and hard-working. No one here wastes time or is not passionate about what they do. I enjoy coming to work every day!
Great Place to Work
Tully Rinckey PLLC has made a great work home for me. The attorneys are talented, client services oriented, and really wonderful to work with. There is a system in place for work redistribution when necessary as well. I really enjoy the team atmosphere and definitely recommend the firm to anyone who is considering a position here!

Great place to work
I wasn’t just looking for a job. I was looking for a career! I interviewed with the hiring manager and was quickly called back for an interview with a member of upper management. From first interview to receiving my offer letter, the whole process only took three weeks (during a major holiday season). The work environment is professional and there is always another team member willing to help. This was definitely a great career decision for me.
Fairly Rigid business environment
Its a fairly typical Law firm environment that is driven by billable time and as such is a bit inflexible in its thinking when it comes to employees etc. Having worked in the high technology industry area all of my career this fairly rigid thinking came as a bit of a surprise to me. The pay is fair but the I would not recommended this industry to any "creative thinkers" or to someone wanting a flexible working environment.
