Pros

Generous salary and benefits for an entry level position. This a good place to work in order to get experience on your resume or save up some money before heading to law school. The attorneys are fun and friendly.

Cons

The paralegals are generally rude and miserable people who think they are superior to all other administrative staff. If you are under the age of 30, prepare to be treated like a "kid" who is a complete idiot.

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.
