I hope someone at BCW is monitoring this bowl. There are some pretty clear issues going on at the agency, particularly around burnout and compensation.

Forget the ‘above the line’ mantra and fix the issues right in front of you.

My firm has a collections budget (80% of your billable rate x 1850 hours) and an hourly budget that must be met in order to be eligible for a bonus. The firm cares very little about originations and will reward someone for making their collections over someone who brings in new work. I missed my collection budget due to some odd timing with a client, but originated more than all my peers so no bonus for me. I’ve been at this same mid level firm for 9 years and it’s all I know. Is this normal??
