To find out how third-, fourth- and fifth-year associates rate their firms, our Midlevel Associates Survey examines several aspects of job satisfaction: compensation and benefits; training and guidance; relations with partners and other associates; interest in and satisfaction level with the work; the firm’s policy on billable hours; and management’s openness about firm strategies and ­partnership chances.

Midlevels graded their workplaces in these categories on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the highest score. In the infographic below, we go city-by-city to show how firms in each market compare, based on their associates’ responses to the survey.
