How can I show my paralegal how much I appreciate her?

On a new engagement, manager only gives me an at level review because I am new. Third year here - should I fight back? I’ve been doing a decent job but nothing to back up other than reviewers.

How do I address this situation?? I started a new job (industry) and the SM is not my boss but directly above me and assigns me work which is expected. My issue is that she doesn’t know how to communicate; I.e she calls Teams at random without ever checking if I’m available for a quick chat or call,
- Cuts me off when I’m talking (which is a huge pet peeve of mine) and then wonder why there are issues with our project which is what I can explain if only she let me talk. Continued…

Is there a corporate way to bring up to senior leaders that an IC is causing issues across multiple teams because they are demanding and also doesn’t collaborate well?

So i heard a story few years ago that an intern had a relationship with a partner,and i mean sexual relationship.any of u deloitte people share something about it.

After 12 rounds of me vs my adhd - its still a LOVE/HATE relationship. I conclude I’m in the wrong career as a result. I love being smart, excelling, having random super human skills. But my career/stalemate with my own mind makes me feel like I am the biggest loser fuck up ever. All the time. I 1000% understand why work isn’t working out. I empathize for all involved > they probs deserve. Thrilled to figure this out but OH F$CK this is gonna get BAD bad before it gets fixed. Commiserate?

How to deal with a partner with a difficult style? He cuts people off, is very impatient, has low tolerance for any mistakes no matter how small. Find it hard to meet any of his expectations, ever.

New first year here (aka started three weeks ago) and my senior that I’ve been working with primarily has been so, so nice. I even messed something up (not a huge deal, but definitely still an inconvenience) and she just said no worries, we will figure it out that’s my bad for missing it when reviewing. Just wanted to express a general appreciation for everyone who is patient with juniors like me. Anything I can do (other than saying thanks) to express appreciation for all the help?

Hi Guys,
I attended infosys technical interview for Java developer (7 year experienced) on 17th October. Answered most of the questions. No updates after that. When to expect the next round ?

PC recommendations? Starting my own practice (transactional). Also considering Mac. Thoughts?

I have the opportunity to move from one firm to another that has much better WLB and reputation but it would require a reduction in TC by about 15%. My current TC is >350k. Is it crazy for me to consider moving for less money for better WLB and long term growth (with the reputation)? Anyone make a similar decision?

Advice to young lawyers. Read a book.

I saw the thread about savings and many young lawyers (20s and 30s) don’t know how to open up a brokerage account or invest in their 401k. I know they don’t teach personal finance in school (though they should!), but my advice is that you should go to your local library and read a book about the subject. You have the skills necessary but you must invest in yourself. No one will look out for you.
