Vantaggi

Good PTO (we were so overworked they had to compensate up to three weeks vacation) Bagels on friday Meaningful work experience (although you just fill out forms...no real learning experience) Diversity

Svantaggi

Condescending managers Heavy workload Crazy hours all year round Poor management Bad work culture (If you leave by standard time, which is 5:30, people think you're crazy. Lots of stressed out and rude folks on my team) No mentorship and career advisement progression High turnover rate (on my team alone and within 6 months, 9 people either quit, transferred to another department, or begrudgingly went back to school) Attorneys seem out of touch with their support staff and company as a whole. We do all of their work, bill, speak to foreign nationals, etc etc and they are constantly asking us for help on how to figure out IT/computers, certain clientele, mailroom, general questions about Fragomen. A lot of the attorneys leave super early while we do all of their work.

Vantaggi

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

Svantaggi

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.
