I’m doing the 1Y program at Kellogg which was supposed to start in June. Since I’m sponsored I told my team early and submitted my departure stuff to leave early April. I pushed it to May 1 but don’t think I can push it further because I rolled off my project early April. Not the end of the world but I really hope the start date doesn’t get pushed further

Had a talk with the partners Thursday, they said I’m not producing enough work at the end of each day. First year associate, new area of law, wfh so they are more “what are you doing every second”.

While I appreciate their honesty, I feel like they consider me severely indebted to them that they hired me mid pandemic and “allow” me to work from home.
