Sharp elbowed, passive aggressive snakes - Associate Attorney Cooley Employee Review

No work life balance (big law norm). Fake, passive aggressive, sharp elbowed attorneys abound, especially in the upper ranks. End of year reviews are not a true metric and feedback given doesn’t appear to correlate with those who were laid off. Disproportionately laid off Asian people, women, and POCs generally. Partners year after year were overwhelmingly white and male, which was directly reflected in the aforementioned layoffs. Continues to make decisions to increase partner profits like deferring incoming associates.
