Pros

You’ll meet amazing colleagues here, for the most part. Start with 22 days of PTO.

Cons

The endless overtime is NOT a perk because it is expected of you to work yourself to the bone in order to make a barely livable wage. People have literally collapsed from exhaustion in office and the managing partner barely bat an eye as he walked past. This place does not respect your personal boundaries nor physical/mental health. Management will pressure you to work until you have mental breakdowns and refuse to accommodate when you attempt to draw boundaries or have personal crises. They expect this job to be your entire life. New attorneys and management that are hired are generally unaffable. (Some can be kind, but that is far and few in between.) The culture that is cultivated does not encourage open communication between case processors and management because case processors are too afraid to voice their mistakes/concerns. Thusly, there is a lack of growth in terms of soft skills and career mobility here. The "training" is also laughable, as they simply toss you to the sharks. This firm has a strong "sink or swim" attitude, with outstanding work barely recognized, and harsh punishments for slight mistakes. To prospective applicants: run. This firm will chew you up and spit you out without a second thought, destroying every aspect of your health in the process. Not worth it.

Pros

Benefits & PTO are great. Clients are great though some can be high maintenance as expected. Support staff are good collaborators for the most part. Lots of professional development opportunities.

Cons

Mediocre work/life balance. Most teams work past 5:30, remote work is treated as a perk not a right and dependent on your team leader whether it’s respected. Hopefully you get on a good team as it’s difficult to move within teams and work on other visa types.
