If you want competition, go to another firm - they are a dime-a-dozen. We are very happy being collegial.

There's something nice about not viewing your fellow attorneys as competition. Add that to the mix and it becomes much less pleasant.

You mean like the kind of competition that exists in almost every other professional environment?

Really? You work 2500 hours, I work 1500 hours. We do same quality of work. You make more. Arbitrary?

Leaving lockstep makes comp decisions totally arbitrary.

Not sure why competition is bad in and of itself.

No reason to move away from it. Ditching lockstep will encourage unnecessary competition.

Best workplace environment
Excellent colleagues and supportive partners. Top rate pay and good training. Everyone else who is not here is envious.

I work here, yea, it has a great reputation but so many of my colleagues who have left think it's over-rated. It's a passive aggressive place and is not the most friendly place for minorities at the higher levels. I'm sticking it out here for a bit longer b/c I would rather stick with the devil I know.
