Pros

Colleagues are extremely welcoming and nice. Everyone working outside administration seems to enjoy their jobs. Free food.

Cons

Management set unrealistic expectations that only robots can accomplish. Those who working legal administration are the first ones in the office and the last ones to leave. The email and database systems are extremely outdated and inefficient. The work becomes monotonous very quickly. Most people in the office are young because the firm rotates through many employees. It seems that people are either underpaid or not incentivized to stay longterm with the firm.

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.
