Pros

Prestigious firm, really great for CV

Cons

Poor work environment, overworked/underpaid, attorneys care at all about those who work under them. Very passive and toxic environment as poor training is blamed on the employee rather than the employer.

Thank you for your feedback. We pride ourselves on providing the best training and introduction to the immigration space, so I'm sorry your experience didn't match up to that. The Firm offers over 1,000 training sessions on our Learning Management System, including sections on communication, client service, personal development, and a series of management and leadership trainings; all in addition to our live and recorded business immigration basics series. Many training sessions are as short as five minutes, and all are intended to assist our employees in their development while providing flexibility in where and when they take them. In addition, in 2020 we're planning on rolling out a Firmwide Fragomen Academy onboarding - coordinating our training and onboarding experience across the Firm. We hope to ensure that everyone receives the same positive training, setting them up for success in their immigration careers. Patrick Gallagher, Director of Learning & Development
