What's the best course of action when you find yourself at a job that's far more chaotic than you assessed while interviewing? Upon starting this job a couple of weeks ago, I discovered between the time I interviewed and my start date they had hired a new CEO, laid off all of their off-shore teams, changed my position to a new hiring manager, and added an on-call rotation to all engineering teams. None of this showed up in my research of the company or my interviews.

First-year at a big law firm and I feel like i’m getting passed on good work opportunities that end up going to other first year associates. Is this the norm? I reach out for work but other non-minorities end up with the work. What do I do?

Just started working at a new firm and while I’m happy for the opportunity and I know I’ll get more sophisticated work than at my former firm…I haven’t been given anything and it’s starting to be boring coming to work(whether in person or at home) daily knowing that all I have to look forward to is going home. I hate that law clerks are receiving work when I’m not. AND YES I’VE REQUESTED.

Tired of all the respectability politics. Just once I want to write what I really mean in an email or tell a client what I really think of them when they ask.

Who's doing that for me at work? Nobody.

In the past, lawyer wellness and lawyer discipline/character fitness for bar applicants have existed in silos. I’d like to finally form a bridge between lawyer disciple and lawyer wellness and focus on prevention. When we think of lawyer discipline, we automatically think of outrageous behavior like stealing money. Those are extreme. The common cases are too stressed out and forgetting deadlines or death of a loved one and not having time to call clients back. Cont’d
