Pros

* amongst their peers, paralegals try to do the best to make the company succeed. Good culture of helping each other complete the work

Cons

* attorneys do not necessarily make good managers * culture of favoritism which results in some workers being compensated more even though the level of work may not be similar to others who are not so out going.

Pros

Decent overtime pay. I also had a decent training/onboarding experience, but this was not the norm.

Cons

Exploitative, 80+ hour work weeks, 2am messages from attorneys, burn-out model for paralegals and associates (scoop them up after BA or JD and overwork them until they quit), misrepresent case load during interview by 50% of total, low ceiling for non-attorney career advancement. Have an exit plan.
