Pros

- Great opportunity to gain hands-on experience in immigration procedures and case management. - Flexible work environment with little micromanagement. - Paid training sessions, even if brief. - Supervisors are usually approachable and supportive within their capacity. - Remote work flexibility allows for better work-life balance. - Exposure to a wide range of immigration case types, which helps develop practical skills.

Cons

- Compensation is very low considering the workload and full-time schedule. - Independent contractor position with no paid PTO or sick leave. - Trainings are short and lack clear structure, and every attorney has their own way of handling cases, making it difficult to standardize work. - The company often adds new mandatory tasks (like asking clients for Google reviews) without additional pay or proper notice. - Poor communication during onboarding — many important details about schedules, benefits, and procedures were never explained. - Frequent attorney changes cause confusion and case delays, especially in teams handling multiple states. - Very little recognition for high performance or extra effort; even rewards feel minimal compared to the workload. - The overall structure feels too loose — some days can go by with little supervision or direction.
