Location in DC, happy hour

Minpunten

I have worked in a variety of places my entire life, but this company was by far the worst I have ever worked for. For the most part, staff were okay (aside from constant gossip). Unless you are a favorite (which by the way you have zero control over this), these people will emotionally abuse you and your supervisor will do nothing about it. I cried every single day toward my departure at this company due to a higher up here, every single day I had extreme anxiety and had to use calming methods before going into work. Other individuals also noticed that I was being mistreated and asked me multiple times because they would see it happening on a daily basis. Again, I have worked for more than a few company’s and I have never experienced what I did at DLA. Time and time again, I attempted to talk to my supervisor about ways to improve or just general guidance, and I was blown off/ignored. I will never forget this company for as long as I live- it taught me what to always avoid in my professional career. Supervisors here do not care about staff and will not try to help you perform better in any way. Their main concern is the individual who is above them (higher up). As a supervisor, if your employee tells you a comment someone says to them, it is their duty to get to the bottom of it as opposed to sweeping it under the rug like it did not happen. Be cautious and carefully read reviews on sites such as Glassdoor to see what the company is all about. You don’t want to end up in a situation like mine where everything seems to be going perfect, and then out of nowhere you’re forcefully being shoved out of the door within a two month time span. My supervisor never bothered to listen to what I had to say. If you’re an attorney or associate, be my guest. If not, do not unless of course you are a favorite. Thanks for reading.

Pluspunten

- Excellent pay and benefits - Flexibility with the hybrid schedule (depending on your practice group) - Easy to build community with other assistants and paralegals

Minpunten

- Easy to fall into burnout due to understaffing in assistant/paralegal positions - Be prepared for an unexpectedly higher or lower workload at any point. - D.C. location is particularly strict about the hybrid expectations - A bit disorganized as a whole when it comes to onboarding and training for your particular practice group.
