Pros

Absolutely nothing - not worth your mental health!! Listen to the negative reviews. Employees are pushed weekly by the CEO (Emon Ahmed) to write good reviews online to boost their reputation. CEO has psychopathic tendencies. No morals, very misogynistic to the point where you feel uncomfortable, professional conduct issues, toxic working environment, the seniors often harass and shout at employees. Markus Malik is notorious for intimidating and mistreating women in the workplace due to his own personal issues, is quite absent-minded and a shady lawyer. Bunch of cowboy crooks, corner shop mentality thugs. Bullying not just employees but clients and stakeholders.

Cons

Insulting pay! Employees are overworked and overloaded, complaints from clients are constantly flooding in due to their poor work. Terrible place to work in - the CEO watches you through the security cameras, creepy and is inappropriate. Messy management. Male colleagues inappropriately discussing female colleagues in a sexual nature. Extreme lack of respect and a low moral compass. Bullying is a common practice and senior management have psychopathic tendencies, will often gaslight, discriminate and be inappropriate. Filing system is old and backdated. Toxic work culture.

Pros

You will gain work experience and learn how not to treat people. They will hire pretty much anyone because no one stays.

Cons

CEO expects everyone to work like the income he receives. The pay is a joke. The upper management is greedy and highly toxic. I don’t recommend anyone work here who have morals, ethics, or any regard for people. It’s all about taking advantage of others. They believe they are in line with top performing law firms, they are a joke. You will routinely be screamed at and belittled.
