Pros

No billable hours, relaxed dress code, lots of ongoing training. Everyone is nice and helpful.

Cons

Limited advancement opportunities, lack of attorney hiring. I think enjoyment depends on the team you are hired on to.

Pros

Decent compensation and benefits. Professional environment.

Cons

Hires a bunch of college graduates with no experience. Employees are there to just put their heads down and process, process, process.

Pros

If you're lucky enough to get on a good team, your job can be somewhat interesting and your co-workers can be awesome. Otherwise, some teams seem to randomly fire people every month or so, and it seems like the attorneys are scapegoating their underlings. They put out free fruit from Whole Foods on Mondays, and free bagels on Fridays. Every 3rd Thursday they have a party with snacks and beer/wine. Their insurance benefits are good.

Cons

You're overworked and overwhelmed with minutia that has to be done impeccably the first time, or else you get yelled at or fired for not noticing a tiny detail on a case where you received virtually no training. It's easy to be scapegoated, as the attorneys are under a lot of pressure to produce, and if they didn't take the time to explain something to you, it's easy for them to push that under the rug and claim you're just incompetent. While I appreciate the free food every so often, I'd rather get paid more. The building isn't great after they moved back to FiDi. The midtown building was better, and more conveniently located for the vast majority of the employees.
