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.

Pros

Lots of opportunities to learn about the intricacies of various immigration legal matters

Cons

Poor management (remote managers, little communication or feedback until things go wrong, little to no positive reinforcement), inefficient workflow (lots of redundant excel spreadsheets, manual data management that most definitely can be done using AI)
