But you love your job? If you love it, then stay?
Have you tried asking a partner for something else? More challenging? I was doing a ton of litigation and I wanted a break so I asked for some appellate work and they gave me a couple of briefs.
If you’ve tried this and failed, then I’d put some feelers out for moving. As long as you don’t move every 6 months (unless contract work) I think it is totally fine to leave.
Just be deliberate at your next firm so the work appeals to you.
You need to ask for more work. Partners can’t hold your hand, they have enough going on as it is. Be blunt about it. Staying quiet won’t help. (Sorry I don’t mean to sound like an ass).
