Partners are the GM’s. They run the high level operations and hiring/comp decisions.

SM’s are the Quarterbacks. They run the entire show/engagement from top to bottom.

We would be so lucky to have quarterback senior managers. "Irrelevant sports blog writer with incorrect predictions" is more like it.

Managers are WR’s. They catch what SM’s throw at them and move the engagement forward.

Seniors are Running Backs. They are relied on to move the stick. A little too much before they burn out and a new RB is waiting to take over.

Staff are Offensive Line. They do the dirty and gritty work and often go unnoticed.

Clients are like the New England Patriots. They’ll destroy your self worth no matter how hard you try so you might as well give up and cry.

The senior managers I work with are more like the drunk fans in the stadium than a QB. Belligerent and yelling at the players on the field about things they dont fully understand.

I’m a second year associate at a small, but reputable firm.

The clients are told up front that an associate, rather than a partner will be taking his/her case. I’ve run into an issue a couple of times where the client doubts my advice because I am only 2 years in. Has anyone else experienced this? How do I address the fact that I’m only 2 years in?
