Oracle Solicitors Reviews

This was the most toxic work environment I have ever known. I worked for the London office and I was bullied horrifically by my supervisor. They didn’t care one week I worked 15 hours per day and they pretended that they didn’t notice. I haven’t worked there for nearly 2 years and I still can’t have my teams notification on because I have PTSD from the horrible messages I would receive. Everyone is overworked. They hire people fresh out of uni with little experience so initially you are grateful for the experience, but you do the work of a fee earner on a salary of £18k per year which is not enough to live on in London. I would not recommend working here to anybody not matter how desperate you are for a job, keep looking you deserve somewhere that appreciates you.

Where do I start: -High turnover -hire/fire policy in response to market demands -opaque decisions from upper management -hostility to junior staff from upper management -scandalously low pay -probationary periods used and abused for temporary deployments in response to increased workloads. -high expectations, without reimbursement -discipline in the form of threatening unemployment. -performance benchmarks purposely tailored to be unobtainable for paralegals for sacking ammunition later down the line. -virtually non-existent HR -bullying and toxicity amongst staff. -paralegals do solicitors work, without being reimbursed. -lack of effective leadership. -purposely unclear progression system. - be prepared for many staff breakdowns- senior and junior. Although they would likely challenge every single unfair dismissal claim, many many paralegals have went through the ever revolving door of oracle and not many have survived the long haul. Those who have…. Are still paralegals. Dinosaur Firms like these need to be called out, their behaviour should not be allowed to exist in the current highly skilled graduate market. Do not work here.
