Pros

37.5 min per week, straight time to 42 hrs and time and half for over 42. Great during cap season. How fast you move up depends on time management and how the team your on is managed

Cons

Most common starting point is as a temp, and your not always hired on even if your a hard worker.

Pros

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

Cons

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.
