Is it weird for partners of a firm to ask their staff what the company values should be? I thought this should be from the leaders at top. We had meetings where everyone would discuss this and from there the company named their values. It’s like the leaders don’t know what they’re doing or maybe they do.

Or they are realizing that the next generation of workers entering the field have a different set of values from those who started the firm 60 years ago. I see this as a good thing, means the firm is wanting to make positive change to make a better work environment/culture. Wish more firms would do this actually.

Imagine if they impose something on you with no input. Clearly the person wants some advice from you on what you think, we all have different perspectives and can give good insights to different issues

They are pretending like they care about your input. Their values are already baked in the cake. You don’t really matter. But you feel better afterwards, right?

Company values are whatever pays lip service to millenial and now gen z employees who want to feel "meaning" in their work.

The partners just want stable workforce that helps them churn out successful engagements and consistent work.
