[quote=Anonymous]I can't believe how many people are telling OP that you have to stick around for several years out of good will to your firm, if they make you partner. Do you think any men are thinking this? No, you leave when the right opportunity comes up. That means you aim for partnership and when a better opportunity comes, you take it. It may take 2 years to get a government job. The economy may crash and there may be zero jobs in another year. You'd be a fool to "opt out" of partnership this year on the expectation you'll find something better immediately thereafter. Women need to stop being so apologetic about their careers. PS if the economy crashed, the firm would have no apologies about firing you within the year you made partner. [/quote]
