Have a check in with him or her. Ask how he or she likes to be communicated with for various matters. For example, do you prefer that I gather up all my questions and set up a meeting to walk through it with you, or should I ask questions as I go? When something is urgent, should I call or text? Should we have regular touch points or meet just when needed?
Thanks! seems like they prefer calls. Im also new to the firm, still learning.
Yup set up those meetings with your questions. It’s very distracting throughout the day to receive pings with questions. It’s also hard to bill your time sporadically like that

Yup have a paper trail and also ask if there is someone else you can talk with? Do you have a buddy? Or a friend at the firm you can talk openly with to ask questions etc. ? It’s not the best way to start but it’s not uncommon that a Sr isn’t prepared to manage people yet. Find workarounds. Look for a more senior mentor
Please setup a call or ask their communication preferences. Senior managers are too busy to respond to your incessant pings, calls, emails. Sorry if that’s harsh, but it’s reality. You’ll be rewarded over time if you take responsibility for communicating well and keeping things on track.
True, I went from medium-sized firm to smaller firm. It just seems like a pattern already, plus at my other firm the senior managers were usually a little more responsive.
Figure it out ….
