[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone work in nonprofit law? No money, but is there job satisfaction in helping impoverished people? [/quote] My legal aid and public defender friends are the most angry and bitter about their subpar working conditions. Lots of secondary trauma, inadequate administrative support, crushing caseloads which means they're always feeling behind and underperforming, major financial stress of living in more expensive cities with low salaries (especially those that are single). Maybe generic public interest advocacy jobs are more satisfying, but direct representation of individuals sucks in the long term. My friends were largely over it by year 7 and looking to leave. Nearly everyone was out by year 10. [/quote]
