If I could leave today I would. Been in this way too long but difficult to get something else as it's all I know. Love the clients, hate the toxic, bullying internal strife.

The grass isn't always greener even though our minds tell us it is. So unless you have enough savings, I wouldn't advise that you to just leave without a new job lined up. It's easier to find something while still employed. Hang in there, but also take care of your mental health.

I agree with the above: it's easier to find a job if you already have one. Quitting shouldn't be rushed into in non-egregious cases, but if it's been for a long time like the author says then make a plan for it.

But I recommend thinking of it from a different angle than "it might be just as bad elsewhere".

The grass is also not always yellower, even though our minds tell us it is. So if you have enough savings, then find a greener spot to spend your finite time on.

I work with great people. Really can’t say anything bad about my firm in general either. But…I still dislike the entire premise of law firm life, the billable hour, etc.. I’d love to work in a law school setting as a counselor or something but I can’t afford the pay cut. *sigh* Does anyone feel like being a lawyer is just doing homework all day? First world problems I suppose. I’m very thankful to have a job ❤️
