Totally depends on the office and the vertical I think. Chicago is well known for having the best office culture with most ppl in on Fridays, happy hours, a fair amount of office events, etc. Verticals are the same story, I think some are really tight knit and do a lot of both formal and informal events (within the office, not across the country), others maybe not so much. Is there a particular office or area you are looking at?

Doesn’t the up or out culture make it an unpleasant environment to evolve in? Based on my interactions with S& teams on many of my deals, not sure S& is where I’d like to be. Would love to be proven otherwise though.

I have never once felt like it was a competition based on the up or out. I think we are all overachievers and are our own worst critics/enemies in most cases, so up or out really has no impact on my teams or interactions with others. I personally have found an amazing network of people across all levels who are willing to help or give input based on their experience, but maybe it varies by team.

Looking for some advice; I've been a paralegal for about 5 years now, and the past year or so has been hard. One firm closed, which dropped me in another firm which was never good for me, and then into another with a culture that was really unhealthy to me. My resume shows a few short stays at firms, and now I'm looking at moving after six months due to issues that turned over the entire paralegal team so far except for me. How do I show employers I'm a dedicated worker after a difficult year?

Hi guys, have you ever cried in a workplace. How does it feel if no one helps you when u ask something and they don’t respond at all if u are even asking doubts to them. Everyday I m crying coz of the culture since it’s a full time work from home we will have to call people in teams for helps and doubts and every time no one respond us and they make us think that we are unfit for this job and I cry at work everyday.. does this mean r they asking me to leave the job indirectly!!!
