Last week RollOnFriday revealed the winner of the Firm of the Year 2015 title and the winner of the Golden Turd shitele. Now it is time to unveil the full rankings.
Using the ratings that over 3,000 staff across the UK have given their beloved firms across nine categories, RollOnFriday's barely-trained statisticians have worked out the overall scores for the 52 qualifiers.
The arrows show the direction of change since last year, with many firms moving relatively little. There have been a few big shifts though, with the greatest improver being Clarke Willmott which has risen a massive 21 places. Other big steps up were made by DWF, which climbed 13 places, and Linklaters, which moved up 12 spots.
But every ascent means kicking someone else down the stairs, and there have been a handfull of nausea-inducing drops too. The largest dive has been taken by Browne Jacobson, which plunged 18 places. Trowers sunk almost as far, crashing 16 places until its fall was gently cushioned by the Golden Turd. The other hefty dives were taken by FFW, which tumbled 17 places, and Squire Patton Boggs which fell 12 spots.
Meanwhile the steadiest performers include Kirkland & Ellis which has been keeping its staff consistently satisfied, and DAC Beachcroft which has been pissing them off in a comendably consistent manner. Simmons & Simmons and WFW are new entries this year, and if you can't find your firm it is because unfortunately too few of your colleagues voted. Make sure they do next year.
Managing Partners can take comfort in the fact that no fewer than 2,200 staff gave their firms an 'excellent' score in a category, although it could just have been for the meeting room biscuits. And if you're managing a firm in the relegation zone then very few, if any of those staff, are employed by you.
