Do you feel that staff stay longer at firms than attorneys? Should we change more often or are we afraid of change?

I find that some more mature staff stay longer than the attorneys. My plan is to move every few years. I’ve found that it doesn’t serve me financially to stay longer. I get a chance to negotiate when I move on.

My firm has merged and then split during the 4 years I have been employed. A senior partner retired and many changes seemed to follow. One of the associates just didn’t seem to really enjoy her profession either and she left the firm. I think it’s easier for staff to get acquainted with the attorney’s preferences and expectations, and the idea of having to start over with a new attorney is daunting.
