NP here.  Letting someone go, especially if they have become dormant and petulant after several years, is not that easy, unfortunately.  Businesses are worried about law suits.

OP, in the past, at law firms, I have seen long term employees who actually performed well, but did not work well with others ("bad fit") say that there are cutbacks in that particular position. ie: layoffs. Good luck, because this is a tough situation, where everyone else suffers, until a worker who is a good fit comes in - which usually is not difficult.  If an office has had a bad worker for some time - almost anyone else will do - provided they have a decent background/work ethic and are not just looking to pad their resume. If someone actually wants to be there - you will know (ie: avoid the applicants who are looking to WFH in non- WFH positions, for example).  You want someone who fits with the goal of the office.

Sorry you are going through this.  I have heard that bad employees are basically stealing from the company - and that is just what it is. [/quote]
