Pros

Other co workers are sweet and you can expect to spend any downtime you have griping with them about how awful management/HR are but that's really it. Oh, lots of opportunities to work overtime if you need the money. Are these really pros? These are literally the only pros I can think of.

Cons

The positive reviews here are all fake, it's well-known in the office that HR employees are asked to write these reviews, literally no one likes working here. You will get minimal training and be constantly asked to do extra work for pennies. You will get graded like a student on every single assignment you submit and you will be ranked every month along with the rest of your co workers and any extra money you make outside of the paltry base salary will be based on your rank--basically expect to work 8-12 hours of over time every week if you want to earn an extra couple hundred dollars. Expect to regularly receive rude, condescending emails from management and the sketchy owner. Expect to regularly deal with rude and harassing customers with no support. If you have a good team manager, this place might be bearable if you just need some quick $ (basically the same hourly wage as working at Starbucks, but Starbucks has way better benefits) but otherwise, it's not worth it. It's not worth the interview, the "training," the hours, nothing. Benefits are absolutely minimal. They took away some benefits when the pandemic started claiming that business was suffering but then requested workers put in over time for minimal return once it became clear that the pandemic did not reduce the client caseload. No one ever has any idea how many clients are being taken on, the legal strategy is constantly changing (And constantly requiring additional work from writers, editors, and attorneys to adapt), and clocking into work pretty much feels like checking in on a dumpster fire. I could go on and on but even this isn't really worth my time and I'm only filling this out to get continued access to glassdoor. All I can say is, please don't waste your time here.

Pros

Learn a lot about immigration laws and application. Ideal for recent grad and don't mind the pay.

Cons

They lead you to believe they have fantastic work ethics and treat everyone fairly but you are simply just a number and they do not care one bit about their employees. Too much manipulation in salary right from starting of the employment till end of the employment. This is extremely poor practice and disgustingly unprofessional.

Pros

The people. This is in all of the reviews because it is true. The people who work here are fantastic. They are funny, smart, and supportive, and I feel lucky to have worked with them. Putting anything else in this section would be a stretch.

Cons

To be entirely frank, this job is a true tragedy. A place full of bright, fun, and intelligent writers who are not given what they deserve by a management that views them as entirely expendable. My only wish is that I could free them as I’ve freed myself. My main complaints: - The job is very isolating. If you’re looking for a job where you do your work, get your paycheck, and go home, this will be a good fit. If you want camaraderie within the office and human interaction, this is not the place for you. - You are severely underpaid for the difficulty and quantity of work you are expected to produce. This work is repetitive, grueling, and boring. - There is unbelievable pressure to take “optional” bonus work, which, as it turns out, is not optional at all. These overtime projects are also severely underpaid, repetitive, grueling, and boring. - Your opinion is not valued outside of the echo chamber of writers who all agree that the situation isn’t right. In fact, management will refuse to engage with your concerns in any meaningful way. If you want change, you’d be better off quitting. - From what I could tell, the company is genuinely client focused, but they are client focused at the expense of their writers, which creates a toxic work environment. When writers demand better conditions for themselves management gaslights their employees by presenting a false dichotomy where either writers overwork themselves for pitifully low compensation, or clients suffer.
