[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm really amused by the people on this thread screaming about "entitlement." That's not what this is at all. Entitlement would be demanding a partnership salary without the hours/risks that Biglaw requires. No one is doing that. What's happening is that junior and senior associates do not value money/prestige enough to sacrifice security and every other aspect of their lives. "Huge salary" simply isn't their default highest priority anymore - they want more out of life than money and work, so much so that they're willing to take less money. And that's a huge problem for Biglaw as it is currently set up: it relies on associates valuing salary and prestige above all else. It just doesn't work otherwise. This isn't entitlement. This is a failure to provide a product that people are willing to buy.[/quote] A career isn't a product; it is something you create for yourself.[/quote]
