Pros
*Learn multiple new case types at a fast rate *Gain amazing immigration skills *Learn interesting insights into the field *Network with clients
Cons
*Windowless environment *Training is always "High Level Overview" and never granular, leaving new hires to struggle and causing issues when teams have high level attrition *Work 9+ hours days without high pay *Requires unsettling loyalty. If loyalty is questioned- be prepared to be blacklisted. Talking about job aspirations with co-workers can be seen as not being "loyal" to the firm. *Salutations and Questions are distractions - just work or face consequences (best for those who get to do the job fully remote) *High anxiety knowing everything can come back to be blamed on paralegals even though attorneys sign off. *Saw multiple people cry on the job from stress and mistakes
