Curious if after hour and weekend email checking and calls are expected. Also any thoughts on the Partners in those offices and whether they’re easy to get along with? How is job security if you don’t make Partner?

Thanks!

Going through a rough patch, mental-health wise. I have always been a high performer and dont back down from challenges.

I don’t know what went wrong, but I don’t think I’m the only one to have felt this. Sorry for the sads!
