[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it’s like sick days - you’re entitled to then, but taking then has no impact on billable hour requirements [/quote] THIS. I am in big law and this is my understanding of how it works. Lesson learned, make sure you understand the policy. And I don't think it is unique to law firms. Other large corporate businesses I believe would have the same policy.[/quote] I now work in fundraising and if I go on vacation, my $ goal for the month doesn't go down. Used to be a lawyer and I don't remember my billable requirements going down months when I had vacation. I think bereavement time is just sort of extra vacation, that you are only supposed to get/take for specific purposes. BigLaw is punishing. That's why I barely lasted two years. And I was at a nice firm.[/quote] ^ Also, I'm sorry about your grandmother, OP.[/quote]
