Pros

Great internship, plenty of oppurtunities to network. Lots of free food and developmental sessions. Good oppurtunity to gain real world big law experience.

Cons

Not necassarily a con: Have to put effort into meeting people and getting involved in projects to remain busy. Otherwise there are times of nothing to do.

Pros

- Excellent pay and benefits - Flexibility with the hybrid schedule (depending on your practice group) - Easy to build community with other assistants and paralegals

Cons

- Easy to fall into burnout due to understaffing in assistant/paralegal positions - Be prepared for an unexpectedly higher or lower workload at any point. - D.C. location is particularly strict about the hybrid expectations - A bit disorganized as a whole when it comes to onboarding and training for your particular practice group.
