Great place for learning and advancement of your career.
Pros: BAL is a very wholesome place to work. You’ll be at the forefront of immigration service and in the midts of some of the greatest experts in the field. BAL offers great career opportunities across the different departments and is relatively more relaxed that other top immigration law firms. You’ll always feel challenged to learn more and handle new tasks, which contributes to one’s overall growth. You’ll work with some amazing and very knowledgeable people, and you’ll have hands on experience with immigration matters for top Fortune 500 companies, resolving all sorts of issues. It’s a fast paced environment, with lots of development opportunities.
Cons: Immigration is generally a bit of a stressful field, especially if you are in the front end of the service delivery. Managing the immigration processes and tight deadlines for clients at times is really hard. This with an imbalanced work load can be quite demoralizing at times. I do believe work load can be managed a bit better, but I don’t think this is just a BAL issue. Many other immigration providers face the exact same issues. BAL has also been implementing a framework for applying some improvements based on the voice of the employees and in the years I’ve been around I’ve seen a tremendous change in some departments and areas of the work.
