Pros

Hour lunch break. Relatively easy work. Secretarial staff is paid well.

Cons

Management is horrible. Support staff is treated infairly by management and attorneys. You are not allowed to leave the floor for any reason. You have to account for every minute. NO employee perks. Paralegals are way underpaid and overworked. Management hires people with low salary in a file clerk position. Then promote them to paralegal on same salary. No raise. Great business/ law firm- bad for employees

Pros

IF you are good at your job, the work is rewarding. The overall structure of the team is great and I truly enjoy the balance and culture.

Cons

The performance expectations to pay do not add up. You are expected to over perform and then accept a 3% raise at the end of the year. There really is no incentive to do well here. There’s no senior status or significant financial gain. It is difficult to want to over perform when management will not give you more than 4/4.5 stars on your reviews to justify the crap raises. Also, don’t think about going to management for help. I find it hard to believe that any of them actually did the work they so criticize you on
