The pay I am getting is in the range of 9-10LPA. The management is constantly harassing me to procure clients and to do only liasioning work.
There is no growth and there is constant harassment by my partners seated in Mumbai and Hyd.
- The salary is delayed every month with the reason that the Delhi office is not doing billing.
- No partner has visited the office in last 6 months to help generate revenues. - Partners are not aware of basic laws
- Holding up expenses without any reason
Have been giving interviews left, right and centre but not getting any good offers even matching my pay. Tier 1 are rejecting my cv just because I am from lower tiered law firm. Have certain responsibilities so getting a pay cut will be very difficult. Kindly advise what should I do, I am stuck in this loop.
Please give this route a shot, if not, come back here and I will tell you a way to get in touch with me.
As far as career choices go, keep applying to law firms/chambers and something will turn up for sure. Start from somewhere and don't let the stagnation rot you. Keep moving, even if it's only an inch better than where you were.
