Pros

good paid, sometimes low work periods, hybrid schedule, nice office in midtown

Cons

Everything else. I had maybe a combined 20 mins of interaction with my partner. Partners do not care about you or invest in training/mentoring you. You are there to push cases out like a machine and nothing more. Honestly, I didn't even feel like an attorney. Everything is automated and you're rarely using your brain. No mentorship at all, no investment in you. And support to diverse "talent is not there. The firm loves to say they are diverse but again, there is no effort by partners to sponsor diverse attorneys. It is truly such a terrible firm. I had the worst experience and I hope to never be in the immigration field because of it.

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.
