We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.

Can anyone highlight the work culture at their Mumbai office?
Really curious to know.
People are encouraged to leave early and no unwritten rule that you have to stay until the partner stays. But, if you have work, you probably would be expected to start work after you reach home.
All in all, It would be similar to any other similarly placed Firms. Some days would be brutal, some days would be light. There would be teams, which probably did not get to enjoy a single weekend, and there would be teams, which are slightly lucky in that regard.
But, what you get is supportive seniors, who are equally invested in you and in the process. That might make the grinding out a tad bit bearable.
The lure is the lure of money, not to fund vacations, but to pay off loans, people take in a lot of debt in these colleges where firms like these like to solely select from.
One may apply for a position, either by applying through the website (argus-p.com), or by sending email to recruit@argus-p.com, specifying clearly the location preference and the area of your interest.
They take freshers, but only directly from colleges, or through PPO.
Kid, if you're not a topper, I'd suggest you stay away from toxic workplaces that "only prefers toppers" and instead opt for a firm more keen on developing you professionally.
Coming from a non-topper from a non-NLU who got into Trilegal and AZB, lol.
Kudos and good luck!
If you're from a teir 2 Nlu.
