[quote=Anonymous]When I worked in biglaw, we hired a very medicore guy who normally wouldn't have passed our grade benchmarks, etc. for his school. We explicitly did it because his father was a client and for business reasons. The associate spent nearly 8 years doing crap work and billing crap before moving onto his next "venture." In the interim, we let go of what felt like hundreds of bright, hardworking associates. Some under really terrible circumstances (trumped up reviews, etc.). It kind of killed me so when the economy turned, I left private practice handed in my partnership chips, took the equity owed to me, and worked elsewhere.[/quote]
