Pros

Northwest Justice Project offers an incredible culture of support for its attorneys. Coworkers and managers go out of their way to help each other and make sure clients get the best service possible. Hours are reasonable. This is a very vision-oriented organization and the people who work here are driven by that vision.

Cons

People who are not committed to public interest work tend not to last. This work can be stressful, especially for those who do not know what to expect. Clients have many challenges and bring a lot of issues to the table. Attorneys must be adept at communicating with all kinds of people, and must be able to think on their feet.. The pay, while good for a legal aid program, lags behind government attorney jobs.

Pros

Great institutionalized support. If you need litigation expenses forwarded by the agency, they will usually do so. If you need a specific kind of training, they will get you that training. If you need support, there will be someone in the organization who can guide you. I LOVE the support I get from the organization. Also love being able to help marginalized individuals and communities.

Cons

Management believes they are being as supportive as they can. They try really hard and believe they appreciate your experience and work. But sometimes it seems that they underestimate your value and prioritize goals that do not actually add value to the work.
