Pros

* Consilio works on some great cases which are challenging and rewarding from a sheer scope of accomplishment. * People who support you are driven and capable professionals.

Cons

* Consilio is extremely understaffed. Consilio bought Legility in late 2022. In the following year over 60% of the Legility PM staff left before the companies completed their merger as they did not want to work for Consilio. * The existing workflows and reporting tools are difficult to use. Entering tickets regularly takes more time than the task the tickets are asking to be completed. * Upper Management is trying to make numerous global changes within a calendar year which is taxing resources across the company. * Middle management is too busy trying to implement the broad new changes to assist staff as problems arise due to being short staffed.

Pros

It can be a decent stopgap if you need temporary income, but it’s not a place where you can build stability or feel particularly valued.

Cons

Working as a document review attorney at Consilio was, overall, a frustrating and unstable experience. The biggest issue is the lack of job security. Projects can end abruptly with little to no notice, leaving you scrambling for your next assignment. Despite the expectation that you remain highly responsive and available, there’s no reciprocal commitment from the company to provide consistent work. Management quality varies widely by project. Some team leads are organized and communicative, but others are unresponsive or unclear with instructions, which creates unnecessary confusion—especially when deadlines are tight and expectations are high. Feedback is minimal, and when it does come, it’s often inconsistent. The work itself is repetitive, as expected in document review, but what makes it worse is the pressure to maintain high speeds without sacrificing accuracy, all while navigating ever-changing protocols. Training is often rushed or insufficient, making it harder to feel confident in your work. Pay is low for the industry and overtime opportunities can be inconsistent or suddenly cut off. There’s also a noticeable lack of transparency around project duration, extensions, and selection for future work.
