Great morale, limited opportunities for advancement

Business Outlook

Pros

The location I worked at had a wonderful HR manager and therefore, morale was very high. Significant care was taken when planning for events associated with birthdays and other celebrations. Additionally, HR was willing to hear concerns of employees and act when necessary. There were also training opportunities offered frequently, which was helpful considering the complicated nature of immigration. Fragomen offered a fair number of vacation and sick days. Expectations on administrative policies were very clearly laid out and if there was any misunderstanding, the HR manager was ready to jump in and help.

Cons

Significant amount of nepotism in the worst possible way. Employees that were promoted were often the ones that had been there the longest, rather than those that worked the hardest. While these things are not mutually exclusive, it seemed that recognition was given to those who did not necessarily work the hardest or have the best quality work, but who had been there the longest.

An unpleasant place to work.

Business Outlook

Pros

Generous salary and benefits for an entry level position. This a good place to work in order to get experience on your resume or save up some money before heading to law school. The attorneys are fun and friendly.

Cons

The paralegals are generally rude and miserable people who think they are superior to all other administrative staff. If you are under the age of 30, prepare to be treated like a "kid" who is a complete idiot.

Good working environment, but needs improvement.

Business Outlook

Pros

- Management shows they wish to improve salaries, working conditions, additional benefits, etc... and at times actually succeed. - Work-life balance mostly OK, relatively stable work load - All issues can be openly discussed with direct management, even though a solution is not always provided - Most colleagues very enjoyable people - Most managers are friendly and wish the best for the employees - Work load is constantly monitored and attempts are made to keep workload reasonable - In case of issued, management is generally strict but supportive to employees.

Cons

- Often efforts from local managers to improve employee's conditions are blocked at partner level - The way employees are treated, recruited and assessed is not consistent between offices (at some offices at times employee satisfaction is very low, often due to high work load) - Opportunities for personal growth are available, but are not always satisfactory (i.e. can be quite limited and progress in career is rather slow) - Company values are not applied in practice (i.e. the client's requests always go first and the employees come second) - Corporate culture of lack of respect for caseworkers (especially junior ones) comes to the fore regularly, even if the individual manager does generally respect the employees - It takes very long before additional staff is hired, even though it is clear workload is too high, or will very soon be too high
