Pluspunten

Good health insurance plan and occasional office events/parties

Minpunten

The immigration team leadership will brag about being one of the few immigration departments in big law that is actually profitable, and will lie about paying above market rates. Other comparable business immigration firms start out at at least $10K more for the same roles. The higher ups will cite inflation and higher cost of living as an excuse to not pay better yet the company still continues to turn a profit. They don’t care about how inflation individually affects their staff. The Employee Assistance Program is also not great and difficult to navigate. You get little to no feedback on your work, a case load that is unmanageable, and hardly no training. If you do your work right no one bats an eye, but one mistake that might have gotten overlooked by everyone working on the case (paralegal, attorney, package reviewer, and client), and you will be thrown under the bus. They will try to claim a hybrid work schedule as a perk, but provide no resources and even across teams it isn’t implemented uniformly and you will end up having to go in anyways. The way the cases are prepared is more about churning them out fast as opposed to putting out a quality work product, but at the same time management will expect you to know immigration law inside out.

Pluspunten

Flexibility in day to day schedule

Minpunten

The firm about faced on its core value of “Diversity is in our DNA”. Compensation is below industry for staff as the firm works to save every dollar for the partners but under pay staff. Further, the emails from the firms “executive chairman” show a lack of emotional intelligence as many of them are tone deaf to the circumstances of the day. The firm has clearly taken a shift from its socially liberal roots becoming more and more MAGA in nature.
