[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a law firm specific question — law firms are odd places — so probably only law firm experience is relevant to the answer. I am an associate at a large law firm that has an hours requirement. The requirement is very firm; missing by hours means no bonus. Earlier in the year my grandmother died. I contacted HR and was told via email that I was entitled to 3 paid days leave and that I just had to enter con leave on my time entry. I thought that these were real days of “paid leave” and didn’t make-up the hours with other work. Now in January, I am being told by my evaluator I didn’t make my hours and that *his thought* is that con leave is just 3 days you don’t have to show-up to the office but the hours don’t get annualized into the billing requirement. Does this seem right? What should I do?[/quote] Unfortunately, your mentor is correct. Welcome to biglaw. [/quote]
