Not a bad client, but bad manager. What is the best way to talk about the fact that I was only at my previous company for six months (not publicis) due to the fact that my boss was fired for harassment? I typically say it wasn’t a healthy environment, but would love some additional insight!

Can you say something to the effect of, “There was a colleague who was exhibiting bad behavior. Luckily they were dealt with and terminated from the company but ultimately it created a toxic environment and I no longer felt comfortable there.”

Thanks both!

Pros to EJ: Have my own office, a year or two away from partnership, great office setting and client satisfaction.

Pros to Merrill: Bump in compensation, additional tools and services w banking, ability to take over assets.

Any advice on how to deal with a partner/boss who is shifting all responsibility to me with zero guidance, no mentoring, and an unwillingness to discuss the issues? (Small firm, only associate under this partner and have been working at the firm for 2 years). There are an increasing number of passive aggressive comments from the partner who expects to be completely hands off once the case lands on my desk. Wants me to figure it all out despite cases being from different areas of law.
