Pros

The location of the office is decent.

Cons

One term: golden handcuffs. Fragomen will lure you in with an average salary and over time. Once they've got you, prepare to be treated like the dirt below management's feet. Unless you are a favorite or a brown noser to management, you will not see any career advancement. Management is totally aware of what is going on but, they refuse to do anything about it because they are still making money, when the clients decide to pay.

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.
