What a weird thing to do. I had a "pre-review" meeting with the partner assigned to do my evaluation. The committee meets tomorrow to hash our associate reviews. This partner decided to allow associates to meet with him in advance of that meeting if they wanted to, to discuss anything they desired. My hours as a young associate in a high-powered law firm have never been what they should have been (my minimum monthly is suppose to be 150 and I've only hit 140 twice in two years). Anyway, I was proactive and suggested a cut in pay -- to 80% -- which is what I have been billing at (120 hours) the past several months.
Now, I will see if I can even afford it.
Further depressed. :-(
