Pros

Occasionally allow for personal time off

Cons

Where do I begin? This company will hire you on and let you know you will be handling a few cases and within a few months have about 25-30 cases by yourself. This is a lie. The turnover rate is so high here that as soon as you start, someone is quitting. When someone does quit, regardless of how long you have been there, you receive up to 50-75 cases. The "training" is a joke. You get hired with little to no knowledge of legal practices, and yet are expected to take on cases after two weeks. During training, it is a burden to ask questions, and most of the time you are being trained by someone who has little to no experience themselves. The management here is awful and hateful. The minute you become overwhelmed and ask for help, they offer help for the first week and then slowly watch you fail. This employer pushes its employees to quit. They offer an incentive reward if goals are met each moth, but make them impossible to attain. They also refuse to give any raises, no matter what your performance shows or how long you have been with them. If you care about helping people or have an ounce of personal respect for human kind....this job is not for you. They expect you to keep your head down, mouth shut and don't question anything.

Pros

8-5 schedule 10 days PTO accrued

Cons

This role is a heavy workload with insufficient resources or compensation. You will be mildly trained and “promoted” to a senior role only when there is vacancy (not when you’re ready). That can range from 3 months to a year depending on which previous senior was burnt out to the point of quitting. Management does not make an effort to create positive relationships with employees therefore it makes it difficult to want to work for them. They encourage to ask for help when you need it but when you ask, they will “follow up” with you and then hope you stop nagging. You are left to fend for yourself and train yourself amongst your peers rather than the supervisor you’re assigned because they barely know what they are doing themselves. The only benefit to this job is learning your basic office skills so that you can transition to another job. Several employees leave within a couple months and even on their first day. Avoid working here if you can, you will find a better entry level job elsewhere.
