It depends on the relationship you build with this network. I have at least two senior people at my current firm with whom I'd be comfortable having this conversation.

I just can’t seem to motivate myself to do it, I’m so mentally burnt out at the end of the day from a high stress HR job, the last thing I feel like doing is studying HR!

6th year associate here at a TX mid-law firm in a niche litigation practice. I am feeling burnt out with litigation, in particular the discovery process.

It doesn’t appear there is an opportunity for me to transition to a transactional side here at the firm in the niche practice group. Any suggestions on how to get out of lit.?

Folks who’ve left ClearView, how is life on the other side, and how long did you stay before you jumped ship? It’s a week where I’m burning, and the fact that I feel so isolated during it makes me want to quit consulting altogether. Would also like to talk to some of you if possible. Never thought I’d say this but I honestly feel unhappy in my job, and I wonder if it is just WFH related - and whether it might get better once the office opens up.

Finally, now that WFH is more accepted (thanks 2020), do you think more industries will “reimagine” this arbitrary 40+ hr. work week?

Some orgs tried/have proven to be more productive with less (e.g. 6hr work days, 4 day work weeks) but I don’t know if consulting leaders are enthusiastic about normalizing this since “it’s the land of billable hours”...

I feel confused why I’m not as excited as he is & feeling guilty for not being happier. Feels taboo to admit out loud or in a space like this. I’m having severe morning sickness so that doesn’t help. Did anyone experience something similar or know someone who did? If so, when/how did the excitement grow?
