Your happiness is tantamount. Get out asap.
I’m having this same experience! I am 64 with 20 years big law experience, laid off due to RIF. I have accepted three small firm roles and have left each one after less than two months. None of them are on my resume. When questioned during interviews I simply say I am waiting for a role and culture that are the right fit. Wishing you the best.
Thank you so much!! Its sort of disappointing when you have worked in the law field and certain individuals mess up the experience. I just go to work , stay off the radar and go home. I hope I still find a great place & I hope the same is true for you 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷
Get out asap and don’t put it on your resume
Life’s too short. Get out.
If interviewers ask why you are leaving, you could always say something about it isn't the right culture fit and how you are looking for something that is more like (collaborative, team environment, collegial, etc.)
Thank you very much!!!
100% agree with the others to get out if you're able, the only one you can change it you because most places like that don't change,
Now you know why a lot of people in the legal industry are wrongfully judged as being “job hoppers.” Too many toxic law firms in this industry. It’s beyond repulsive.
This is the most accurate description of what I am seeing. Especially in Florida, it’s a revolving door! I have been a legal assistant for so many years and its so sad to see this field is going down!!
I would give it a couple more months. Things could change in your favor but if they don’t then you can make your move.
Thank you for the advice!
Am with Associate 1. Get out, asap and don't look back. Not worth adding to your resume and/or later explaining to others.
Thank you!
Mean girls says a lot about your character...welcome to the real world
