Work-Life Balance

Many of us at JMP know how draining other jobs—especially the practice of law—can be. That’s why we’ve made it a mission to create a company where our employees can thrive, both professionally and personally. Here are just a few examples of how we try to achieve an optimal work-life balance:

  • A regular, 40-hour-a-week work schedule. Sure, there’s occasionally work to be done after 5:00 or over the weekend. But because our employees are so invested in their own projects or are willing to lend a hand to someone else, any overtime is almost always self-imposed.
  • An open office environment where anyone can ask anyone else a question.
  • A casual dress code. Actually, it’s not a “code” at all—T-shirts, baseball caps, shorts, and sandals are all perfectly acceptable.
  • Biweekly massages—on the clock, and on a real massage table.
  • Bowling, pizza parties, movie days, and various other company events. Most of these are during regular work hours, and many are open to family members.
  • Our own version of the Amazing Race—a citywide scavenger hunt that involved team-building, Sudoku, amateur Shakespeare performances, and lots of running.
  • A genuine respect for every employee’s ideas, interests, goals, and circumstances.
