Pros

The working environment has been very comfortable and the relationships professional. When the projects came to an end, I was notified respectfully. I hope to have future assignments with them.

Cons

Saying I'm a document reviewer is no thrill. "Contract attorney" or "legal analyst" may have a nice ring if you're new to doc review, but if you refer to yourself that way at work or socially, sorry to break the news, but you're a big doofus. Litigation support projects can stop on a dime, so the income is not the least bit reliable (the hardest part of temping). And, even though I'm quite content to perk along on a document review assignment in the name of being able to leave my work completely at work (ahhh... my reason for temping), a couple times I've caught myself inadvertently stepping on toes by offering opinions beyond my pay grade, which... I'd advise avoiding.

Pros

At least they pay weekly

Cons

The recruiters do not seem to know what they are doing. They do not make an effort to roll attorneys to the next projects. They seem to be constantly hiring new people who invariably turn out to be substandard. Other doc review companies are much more professional re how and who they choose. Those that stay have no other place to go.
