Partner scheduled a call this morning and during the call referred to today as a "holiday" with air quotes 🙃

Why would a v5 firm take down a new lateral’s profile after a week? Website shows “lawyer no longer at the firm.”

This job consistently makes me feel like a failure and I legit feel like I’m fighting suicide every other day. Why post this here? To say that chronic depression is not an abnormality in big law.

Is it common for written evaluation to list every mistake you made on a case, including a one-time typo on internal email? I was considered below expectation in my last review, and while the mistakes cited did occur, they were put in a very negative narrative even though none was a repeating issue. The practice leader (who I didn’t work with last year) told me that his first-hand experience with me has been great and he’s seeing none of the issues from my review. Should I still be concerned?

My juniors suck so much that it’s actually affecting my mental health. I’m annualizing 2700 and have zero help except first years who give zero fucks to accept feedback or take instructions. I’ve been asking for more help for months and keep getting told everyone is crushed. Just want to curl up and cry.
