Pros

Flex band working hours, fairly straightforward work

Cons

micromanaging from HR, no control of cases that are assigned to you, some ALJs are not pleasant to work for or give bad instructions, no room for advancement except ALJ or Senior Attorney, neither of which are easy to achieve.

Great benefits. Some bonuses. Telework is available.

The organizational culture is atrocious. The organizational socialization into the employer as a new employee is almost nonexistent.
