Pros

Good Pay. Good co-workers. As far as big firms go, I'd go with someone more established and with a wider scope of practice.

Cons

Lack of feedback from management. Firm is too focused on labor and employment. Go with that is better renowned.

Pros

You'll have the opportunity to gain a lot of experience doing several different jobs for no additional pay.

Cons

They do not care about their staff and will ask for all of your time and effort for nothing in return but occasional office events, like pizza parties. They've hired to many attorneys to be able to pay their staff and let several people go for made up reasons right before bonuses should have been distributed.

Pros

Free food, Reimbursed dinner and Ubers for employees working past 8:00 pm.

Cons

The immigration department is run by the cattiest, nastiest women. They actively gossip about their own employees. Refused proper training but nitpick at every single thing. When asked to be retrained or refreshed, I was met with hostility. Clearly not interested in retaining any of their lower level employees, otherwise they’d actually invest in them. Told my caseload was fair because I had the exact number of cases as a paralegal with 6 years of experience who could clear their docket in a normal work week, while, based on my experience, I had to work over 10 hours of overtime weekly to maintain the same caseload. Luckily all these people have been moved to the firm, BAL. Hopefully the Seyfarth Boston office’s environment improves immensely with the removal of these toxic players.
