Airan Pace Law Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"Thankless"

What do you like about working at Airan Pace Law?

"I got a job when I really needed one, but I did not like much, other than the employees-very nice people work there, even the attorneys. People worked very hard but were never really rewarded for it. I supposed the best thing is that nobody really bothered me, and the working environment (with the employees and attorneys) was very nice."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Not really. It's pretty easy to get a job there. They are always hiring because someone is always leaving when they realize how much better things are at other law firms."

What don't you like about working at Airan Pace Law?

"No real appreciation for employees, in terms of benefits. All employees are underpaid (even attorneys). The only benefit is that the firm pays for half of an employee's health insurance, but it was so expensive, I don't think anybody ever got insurance through the firm! Probation lasts six months, not 3 months like eveyother place I ever worked. There is no 401(k) or any kind of retirement benefits. Holidays are less than at other firms (for example, the office does not close for Memorial day, and they expect you to work on Friday after Thanksgiving). You get ten days of vacation every year, regardless of if you work there one year or ten years. No bonuses (not even for their attorneys). It's basically a firm where the partners don't really seem to care about the employees much or rewarding them for hard work. But weird, because otherwise they are very nice people, if that makes any sense. Even when their employees leave (this place is definitely a revolving door), they never seem to ask themselves how to make things better so they keep their employees. So employees just keep leaving."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"In general, they should do some research about how other firms operate, and improve the quality of the work experience for the employess. Take a course in how to manage a law firm properly and maybe some kind of sensitivity training. Like I heard from someone who still works there that when employees were at home waiting for Hurricane Isaac to hit, one of the partners sent out a text message to all the employees basically saying that the office will be open, and if you don't show up, it will count against your vacation time -- things like that make employees feel unappreciated."
