[quote=Anonymous]Second what 14:05 wrote. They're being generous in giving you time to look for another position. It's hard to put this sort of experience in perspective when you're going through it, but here's an example that might help: one of my colleagues was a 7th(-ish?) year associate when she got a bad review. She'd expected to make partner the following year. Worse, she'd even come in from maternity leave for that performance review. Not a fun time. You don't mention the issues identified in your review, but in my colleague's case, the review was justified. She'd botched a critical project and had stepped on some toes here and there. The reason why she wasn't able to bounce back in terms of lining up another job was she couldn't acknowledge her part in where things went wrong. If you can get past that obstacle - admittedly, a big one - you'll be doing your career a favor.[/quote]
