Pluspunten

Especially as a temp, this firm will hire anyone on a contract/temporary basis, pretty much a sweatshop for USCIS petitions. Keep your head down and file away that paperwork, and collect that overtime $$. Looks great as a resume builder.

Minpunten

Not a sustainable career. Easy to sacrifice health and mental sanity, especially with overtime structure, working overtime is basically expected. Endure a yelling every now and then for an attorney's oversight, you will be overly responsible for catching all mistakes. Will note - I worked here around 2014-2015. maybe things have changed though I doubt it.

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.
