Could someone explain why a partner would rather an associate cap or deduce the hours billed than to write it off himself?

They get penalized in their compensation for write offs depending on the firm

Exactly so they’d rather the associates take the hit because associates won’t get great bonuses and may be in jeopardy of job loss if they have too few hours billed. It’s highly dishonest, and any firm that catches a partner doing that instead of doing a write off should discipline that partner. I’m a partner.

I was always taught not to as an associate and to let the partner take care of it.

Eh, some partners just constantly try to pressure associates to cut time because they have bad clients and/or underbid everything. Or because they are not good at managing projects or giving reasonable assignments that can be completed in a reasonable amount of time. Those are the partners who tend to explicitly ask people to write off time; it’s not just one associate so it affects them a lot. No need to blame this on the associate without other evidence

Graduating senior. Have choices between MBB and SWE at FAANG. Not sure what to do. Long term I’d love to be in a small startup or a leader in a tech company. Not sure which path is better for that. Any thoughts?

What’s the best place to buy bulk liquor in the city? Got a bar cart and want to stock it fully. Is there a Costco that sells liquor that is close? Or any other stores that I can buy 15 bottles from for a discounted price

One key mistake I made while trying to get into PM was to tailor my resume bullet points towards *proving* I was a PM (I did user research! I defined the product vision!) vs. explaining what exactly I did. More lessons learned / tips and tricks 🔗 below.

I'm seriously tired of all the injustice done by cops. I've now caught several in blatant lies... On video or on record.

Maybe this is a mild vent but it gets really hard to defend cases where constitutional violations are just being overlooked especially in an area that favors cops! Ugh🥺
