Think I made a mistake in lateraling - nothing is particularly bad, I just find myself realizing that my situation at my former firm was better for me, all things considered. I left on good terms and I’m pretty confident I could go back, I’m just not even sure how to broach the topic with my old firm. I’ve been at my current firm for 6 months for context - so I think it’s enough time to know (and didn’t switch practice groups). Any advice appreciated

Anyone have slow months where you burn through a lot of your allotted pro bono/professional development hours to keep hitting minimum daily hours? The past few weeks have been like this for me. Should I be concerned (I.e., will this reflect poorly on me, come review time? Will I have dug myself too much of a hole if I keep burning my non-billable hours?) I’ve been asking partners if I can assist in any projects so I can fill my plate, but I’ve only gotten small (4-6 hour) tasks handed my way.

I’ve been at a job for a few months and hate it - partners set unrealistic deadlines, micromanage, and create work that truly is not necessary/push urgency when there is no real urgency. I had other offers prior to accepting this job that may still be options, and going back to my old job (for a pay cut) might also be an option. I can’t tell if this is just burnout, growing pains, or just an untenable work environment. Would you ride it out for a year at new job or pursue other options? HELP!
