[quote=Anonymous]Senior associates are useful for equity partners IF they can manage the junior associates and pretty much run things on a day to day basis — the risky part is when the junior folks get to that level, things may get top heavy. If the firm does not have non-equity partners/counsel positions it may be that he’s a senior associate for a while, it’s getting harder and harder to make equity partner, as no one wants to make their cut smaller — there’s a really good WSJ article about this from about a year ago... Also, partner isn’t the guarantee it was 5-10-15years ago and seems like a more miserable existence, frankly. [/quote]
