Everyone knows a junior and a mid-level in my practice group are hooking up (they tried to block everyone on Instagram stories but forgot a few people so it leaked). Is this a conflict of interest?

Why doesn't everyone just mind their own business? Did you not take a PR class? What's the possible ethical concern: that they might wind up on different sides of the same case. How likely is that since they work in the same firm? Near zero....so, y'all should just mind your own. They're adults. You're an adult. Act like it. They should know better, but it's not your problem.

Nope. Just two adults with bad enough judgment to post evidence of their relationship to a widely-viewed social media website. It’s very bad judgment, of course, if your firm has a policy against this. Otherwise, just ill-advised, IMO.

I think it’s only an issue if that relationship affects advancement of the junior associate or his/her peers.

Not inherently. But it depends on the company’s policy.

Is it weird to send a text the day after getting drinks with someone saying you enjoyed hanging out and want to hang out again?

Got drinks with a guy and it went incredibly well (talked for nearly 5 hours), but I met him in person instead of on an app (where meeting up is clearly defined as a date) so I’m not entirely sure if we both considered it a date? Don’t want to send a text and have him be weirded out, but also want to make it known that I want to be more than friends.

My firm has ~50 attorneys and is the best in the field. all decisions are made by one man, eg bonuses, raises, promotions. There is no transparency. The only objective measure might have been billing. The billing requirement is 1900/ yr, but a total of ~200 hours are no-charged automatically, and he goes after closing the case and no charges hours based on factors unknown. The result is that no one can track their own billables, and the criteria for bonuses are a mystery. Is this normal?
