DOL - Employee Benefits Security Administration

Does anyone have experience of working with them? I plan on bidding on them for the Southern California Public Interest Career Day for my 2L summer since I'm interested in L&E work. I'm trying to get a handle on how their work differs from, say, the Office of the Solicitor. It says they enforce Title 1 of ERISA and related criminal stuff but I don't know if that means they take people/companies into court (or in front of an ALJ), or if they just send strongly worded letters and have the Solicitor deal with it.

I interviewed with them in Pasadena a couple years ago. It's a paid summer job, but it does not involve legal work. My interviewers struck me as some of the dullest people I ever met.
