Pluspunten

This position rewards the intellectually curious.

Minpunten

As stated accurately by a past review, this is a legal sweat shop and an oppressive place to work. They don't care about their Assistant Paralegals as they tend to hire young straight-out-of college students who will do anything to land a decent paying job. There is minimal to no training for the expectations of the position and when things are not going right, they tend to blame the AP's for everything. It's hard to know what the Supervising AP's and Managing attorneys do besides monitor their emails and make sure APs respond on their behalf. It's a very strange work environment and, I'm sure, if their clients knew about the rapid over turn of employees they would question Fragomen's quality of work.

Pluspunten

Decent overtime pay. I also had a decent training/onboarding experience, but this was not the norm.

Minpunten

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.
