Pros

I'm not homeless. I can pay my bills. I eat. I have benefits

Cons

Insane workloads that are so impossible it is unreal. These people - the leaders - do NOT care about their employees. They care about #'s... productivity. Extremely unfair to the general public. They want so many disability decisions processed in a short period of time. Many are allowed when they should have been denied, and vice versa. Allowances that should have been denied are a significant burden on the taxpaying public. I also see a lot of denials that probably should have been allowed... this is unfair to a claimant who might be on the verge of losing his house. SSA is a detriment to employees and the general public alike. Terrible place to work.

Pros

flexibility, teleworking, pay, and holidays off cool work environment.

Cons

Everything's on a quota, heavy workload, dealing with irritated claimants—it's not really a legal job.

Pros

Great work-life balance and excellent people to work with.

Cons

Not the highest pay you can get in the legal field and lots of red tape and rules. Remote work was removed too.
