Pros

They hire lots of recent graduates so there are a lot of young people. I couldn't have stayed as long as I did (5 months) without the group of people who sat in my row. They also have frequent team events and happy hours which is cool.

Cons

They truly will overwork you and not care about your mental health in the slightest. The managers and attorneys treat the assistant paralegals terribly. They constantly gossip among one another and the whole thing feels like round two of high school. It's quite pathetic, honestly. The pay is awful (47k) for the amount of work they expect you to get done. They know we're understaffed and yet their business model relies on using people up as much as they can and then just hiring another recent grad when they eventually burn out and quit. I do not recommend this place at all and I highly recommend that anyone who is considering this place think again and keep the search going for something else.

Pros

The pay was ok, but not exactly on par for the work load.

Cons

Lack of communication, clients are consistently unhappy, support staff is under paid, HR is not on site. Paralegals have yelled at each other. IT is terrible.
