Probably not if you're meeting your hours, but sounds like a pretty unhealthy work environment.
Just one day? No one likes a micromanager
What kind of dump do you work for
ID — but you probably saw that coming lol
Ask for a clarification from your supervisor: is the policy daily 7.5 or monthly 155? Show him the policy in writing (if it’s in writing) while asking that. Try to get a response in writing. They shouldn’t be able to change the rubric on you every other day.
If I meet/beat the monthly min why should it matter if I bill less some days so long as I meet the min and get all my work done? I guess the firm is a business and wants to milk me for all it can I guess.. but I think I value the flexibility and know that some days I just can’t focus well while other days I’m hyper-productive. Sorry that this turned into a bit of a rant.
These signals are mixed, and you should quietly explore some other options - see what the market gauges your skills at? You can negotiate (or explain) from a position of power how it needs to work for you.
I’m experiencing something similar to this where there are various mixed signals — every new associate is told something different and our firm policies seem to be changing daily, but none of them add up. I plan on asking for clear cut direction in our next meeting and then following up in writing.
