Farella Braun + Martel Named Among 2023 Best Places to Work

May 5, 2023 Announcement

#1 Among Large Companies 3rd Year in a Row

Farella Braun + Martel is proud to be recognized among the 2023 Best Places to Work in the Bay Area and earn a #1 ranking in the large company category (200-499 employees) for the third year in a row.

Published by the San Francisco Business Times and the Silicon Valley Business Journal on May 5, the list honors Bay Area companies that stand out for having exceptional workplaces that their employees value highly. This is the 17th time Farella has been ranked among the Bay Area's Best Places to Work.

"We are thrilled to earn a #1 ranking in the large company category for the third year in a row. The firm has embraced a new era in how we work, evidenced by our move to new office space at One Bush that leverages the benefits of a hybrid work model and 100% office hoteling," said Farella managing partner Brian Donnelly. "Change is hard, and I'm proud of our employees' and lawyers’ ability to adapt to these changes while maintaining our focus on caring for each other and our clients. Farella is and has always been a truly great place to work. Wow, the third year in a row at #1, amazing!"

The Best Places to Work rankings highlight Bay Area companies whose employees rate them the highest on a number of values, such as fun, collaborative culture, solid compensation, benefits, and management practices. The rankings are determined by surveys sent directly to employees by research partner Quantum Workplace, which then scores and ranks participants.

Farella Braun + Martel is a leading Northern California law firm representing corporate and private clients in sophisticated business transactions and complex commercial, civil, and criminal litigation. Clients seek our imaginative legal solutions and the dynamism and intellectual creativity of our lawyers. We are headquartered in San Francisco and maintain an office in the Napa Valley that is focused on the wine industry.
