Pros

Work life balance, with flexible start and end times. Leave is approved pretty easily. Dont have to talk to customers or other people really, can just do your work. No unpredictability.

Cons

A lot of micromanaging, which makes you not feel like an attorney. Management is patronizing at times. The workload becomes unreasonable at times (large cases) and management pressures AAs to perform at high productivity rates at over 100%, and preferably at 115% or above. This puts a lot of pressure on AAs who are already struggling with the workload. Reasonable accommodations are hard to get from management. They will fight you. Rare opportunities for promotions and there's a lot of competition for it.

Everything's on a quota, heavy workload, dealing with irritated claimants—it's not really a legal job.
