Please comment on your company's office space, location and facilities. And while we're at it, please tell us a little about the dress code.
The location is great - at the top of collins street. the desks are nice and there are lots of meeting rooms. the end of trip facilities are good.

Our office is great, however i think the melbourne office (when i visited) is outstanding. i look forward to the new sydney office that hopefully emulates melbourne a bit more. i take issue with the lack of desks in certain teams. i find it confusing that the firm wants 60% in-office work, however on some floors clearly does not have enough desks. e.g. in my previous team, there were 5 full time team members hot desking for lack of space. i tend to dress more corporate than some others in the firm, saving my jeans for just casual fridays. however, i think a dress for your day approach is appropriate - provided everyone looks neat and tidy. i personally prefer the old school, corporate style - i do think it looks neater overall.

Very nice offices. closed office spaces so minimal noise from meetings etc (no open plan layout).

The office is currently great and situated in the best part of the city. dress code varies by team but will usually be corporate attire.

Office is very nice, corporate casual is the dress code unless going to a client meeting or court.

The firm is moving offices soon, so although the rating isn't as high as it could be i am sure that will change with the move. dress code is also pretty flexible, common sense applies

Great locations in brisbane, sydney and melbourne. dress code is "dress for your day" so usually very casual office attire

Location and building facilities are fantastic. limited natural lighting in parts of the office, but currently no hot-desking (with the exception of paralegals who work on an ad-hoc basis). multiple coffee options in the kitchen, and kitchen amenities are exceptionally well kept.

The offices are very old. the firm is not really willing to spend the money on ergonomic improvements (eg. standing desks) and have quite strict policies around this. the it systems are also not very good. again, the firm seems unwilling to spend money on new technology (eg. allowing all lawyers to have work laptops). the dress code is good. they have introduced a dress for your day policy where you can wear more comfortable clothing depending on whether you have any meetings or court appearances.

About to move buildings but typical mid 2000s. dress code is dress for your day.
Graduate, Melbourne - 07 Dec 2019
Heritage building, semi-open plan. corporate dress code, but not strict. no expectation for women to wear heels or makeup

Dress code is dress for your day. facilities are great - kitchen facilities have everything you need, great end of trip facilities, location is very central and easy to access lunch spots, public transport etc.

The office layout is pretty poor. it's open plan but very few places to go for a private call or team meeting. the location is excellent and the facilities generally good. some teams have a "dress for your day" dress code, the idea of which is that you may dress casual if you have no external facing meetings that day, but there is an expectation that you keep business clothes nearby in case something comes up. most of the firm has a strict business dress during the week and casual friday dress code, and some teams don't partake in the casual friday dress code at all. overall, i think everyone would be a lot happier and more comfortable if there was a company wide "dress for your day" policy - i certainly am.

The location is perfect. it would be great to have showering facilities so i could ride to work. the dress code seems to be corporate. we have casual fridays.

We have a 'dress for your day' dress code, which is great - people wear what they feel comfortable in. office space and facilities are 10/10 - we have a lovely working space, light, plants, kitchen etc. we also have access to amazing end of trip facilities
Graduate, Perth - 07 Nov 2019
The office space, location and facilities are top tier. the office is modern and half-open plan. the dress code is "dress for your day" every day, meaning most days if i am not meeting with clients i will wear a t-shirt and chinos.

Slightly older office, most people have offices which helps with phone calls and privacy. however the majority of people have an open door policy. casual business dress code.
