Let me just put it out there: I feel deeply ambivalent about those “best law firms for women” lists—particularly those that purport to be good places for mommies (more on that later).
While I’m a strong believer in holding firms and companies accountable about their track records on women and diversity, I’m skeptical these list are doing the job. I often feel firms are pulling the wool over our eyes with fuzzy stats and fancy-sounding women initiatives that are more style than substance. Sometimes, when I read about these “wonderful” firms, I feel a bit dirty—like I’ve been sucked into their P.R. machinery.
