Hi! I am fresh graduate from a tier 1 university in India. I completed the 5 year law course in May, 2026 and got placed through campus placements on my own merit in a reputed (not a tier 1, but in a tier 2 law firm) with decent pay in Mumbai. Currently, I will complete 3 months working with the gen corp team in the said law firm and will also complete my probation. During law school, I always feared that I would hate working in a corporate set up because I hated studying company law and other corporate laws and my fears have turned to be true. I took up this job so that I could financially support my parents and provide them some mental relief. However, the issue is not only about disliking corporate law, but also that the work culture in these firms is a torture. Since joining, work life balance has gone for a toss. I find myself working for a few hours on weekends as well, doing the work which I absolutely loathe. Working in this environment has taken a toll on my health as well- I experience sleepless nights, indigestion, headaches, mild fever, body aches and had an intense panic attack this weekend. Considering my experience, I think of quitting this job every single day. In fact, I feel so traumatised by the entire experience, that I have begin doubting if I should switch my career from law to some other field (for example- management after pursuing an MBA). I have communicated my concerns to my parents, however, they believe that it is just a matter of time till I get used to this life. Is it too early to hand in my resignation on completing 3 months? I have not landed on another job yet. (pursuing an LLM, MBA, litigation and academia are options I am exploring). I look up to genuine advice, thank you so much.
