Pros

Free lunch on Fridays, and free coffee and teas in the kitchen. Parking is free. Admin staff if nice.

Cons

This is one of the worst document review mills I’ve worked at, and I’ve seen a few. The supervisory staff have their noses in the air and are completely unapproachable and condescending. When review attorneys dare to ask them a question, they act as if you’re bothering them, and then speak to you as if you’re some pesky middle school kid instead of a professional. One of the supervisors sends at least 1 snarky email a day to “the team,” designed to make us feel like idiots. You get or incomplete / inaccurate instructions (or none at all), and are then made to feel stupid when you ask questions to fill in the blanks. Same deal when expectations or instructions change, which they do here regularly. Spare yourself the stress and grief, and look elsewhere for review gigs unless you’re really desperate for a paycheck. It’s not worth the extra $1-2 per hour above the regular Miami market rate to be disrespected daily, on top of putting up with the the booooring work of reviewing documents.

Pros

HR department was decent to deal with.

Cons

- Lack of focus on strategy, seemingly endless shifts in priorities week to week, month to month, year after year. Not congruent change, not progressive change, but chaotic disorienting change. - Upper management claims to have an absolute "No A-holes" policy, claims to want to encourage cooperation and growth. Then turns around and is fully complacent with obviously toxic behavior from people in positions of authority, especially technical authority. These toxic interactions gradually wore down people's desire to engage.
