Date: January 21st, 2015 7:57 PM Author: exhilarant heaven Small firm, less than 20 partners. Just became a full partner recently.
The number of "off the record" belittling comments about other partners and other catty shit is obnoxious. I almost wish I was just a regular worker bee. |

Date: February 11th, 2015 5:27 PM Author: exhilarant heaven more like $18-20mm in gross revenue.
Most partners have larger capital accounts than I do, but yeah, total is like $1.2-5mm.
We are very lean. I just learned today that the desk I sit at was literally purchased in 1982...other than new carpet and a refresh of the elevator bank, we are very frugal (ie: cheap). |

Date: January 21st, 2015 10:16 PM Author: exhilarant heaven Just little stuff. One guy thinks another has bad judgment, another guys thinks some other guy is lazy and unambitious, yada yada.
Maybe "hate" is a strong word, it is just catty like junior high girls. |

|
Date: January 21st, 2015 10:36 PM Author: exhilarant heaven You don't "have" to originate. There are a number of partners who rely on others in large part and probably only brought in 20% of their hours.
I will probably originate about $400-500k myself this year from various things, but I'm also very important to one of our largest clients, so that makes me valuable even without crazy originations. |
