[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It almost makes me laugh when I see the inevitable "how do we keep our talent" navel gazing PR pieces in the legal industry. Big law doesn't care about talent. It cares about getting clients and that means your connections to power. A lot of people get there by linking up with a big partner and cutting all lines below them. Others have social capital. You, OP...are screwed.[/quote] +1. Law firms are not meritocracies. And I say this as someone who has done quite well at a firm. But I have seen how many people were thrown under the bus for getting on the wrong side of one partner or another. It can be brutal. Good work doesn't buy you security.[/quote]
