I started at a v100 firm in NY 6 months ago from a regional firm in the transactions group. Since work has been slow I haven’t had too many opportunities to do good work for partners but I feel I have when given the chance.

However, one partner who is notoriously difficult has given me a number of assignments and is an extreme micromanager and know it all. Now when I get an email from him my stomach drops as nothing positive ever comes out of it. Does anyone have advice on coping with this?

Interviewed with a big law firm (went well). They seemed interested based on our follow up conversation via email. Then I got totally ghosted despite reaching out a couple times. Is this normal?

Thoughts on Bryan Cave? Satellite office in Texas. Transactional practice. 6th year associate.

I’m in a specialist group with only a few other associates in my office. I know for a fact I outperform (and outbill) at least one of them, and the others are at different levels than I am so different metrics. I feel like the partner in my office gives me a way harder time on things than other associates not in my office and I’m held to a way higher standard than the others. Any recommendations on how to stop beating myself up/address the issue?
