Why do the partners eat all the cake? Is it by accident or is it deliberate? Very cheap tactic if so
Adding to the list of cheap tactics:

1. 50% bonus before 31st March, rest in August (if any)

2. Arrears accrued from 1st April released in October

3. Delayed TDS filings
Delayed TDS filing??!!!

Is this a one-off inadvertent error or something bigger? This should be unheard of
To be fair, happened with me only once for one quarter, right after I had put in my papers.
Luthra gives out its bonus in 4 quarterly instalments - which is even worse.

Most of the other firms also delay bonus and increments.
Sadly, that is the case. There are internal mails sent for 'deal disclosures' which have all the names. But for the public posts, only the partners.
MT is one partner who actually understands this problem and reposts with full credits.
Sir, taking print outs and proofreading maketh not the deal :)
Are you saying Saraf has such poorly trained associates that they can only take print outs and proof read? Sounds about right for a tier 3 firm, Sir
Heavens no. The average Indian Asso is deeply involved in procuring the client, deal structuring and negotiation. Don't you know :) ?
That's the partner's job!

Associates draft, partners proofread.
Do associates work diligently, honestly and selflessly?
They are not paid diligently, honestly or selflessly so why should they?
More than anything this just shows the firms culture
