Pros

Nice coworkers and convenient location

Cons

Very independent work atmosphere. Environment produced by management led to competitive and uncomfortable workspace. Lots of menial/admin work. Little room for growth. Untrustworthy management/HR. may be good for temporary work, but there appears to be little care for employees. Turnover rate is impressive. job will soon fully be outsourced to workers abroad for less $$

Pros

Decent overtime pay. I also had a decent training/onboarding experience, but this was not the norm.

Cons

Exploitative, 80+ hour work weeks, 2am messages from attorneys, burn-out model for paralegals and associates (scoop them up after BA or JD and overwork them until they quit), misrepresent case load during interview by 50% of total, low ceiling for non-attorney career advancement. Have an exit plan.
