Pros

Staff was young and the office is laid back.

Cons

I'm pretty sure this job did irreparable damage to my mind. The negative reviews are completely accurate and go back years, so you can see they have no interest in improving when everyone is saying over and over again that the salary, workload, training, management, etc. sucks! Not worth it, and don't expect anything to change. Management lied about every concern. If you accept a job here to pad your resume, remember: don't work hard, don't take it seriously, don't stress about any of the issues. It got to the point right before I quit where I had to leave in the middle of the day because I was so overwhelmed and overworked for such a low salary. And the sad part is they let me walk out and come back multiple times because no one wants to work there. In the year I worked there, at least half the people I met were gone. I only stayed for a year because I was worried about the poor job market during COVID-19. As soon as conditions improved I was outta there. In my job interviews after, people at other firms were apologizing to me that I even worked there because it has a reputation in the industry for traumatizing the employees. Some former employees have told me they still have nightmares.

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.
