I'm a new poster, PQE 5 this year.

My heart goes out to you (and all the poor trainees suffering in silence). I completely understand how you feel, I've been through it (haven't we all?). Please hang in there and learn as much as you can, eventually you will gain portable skills to make the next career move.

Think of it as a rite of passage - what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. All the best!

Senior associates and partners don’t give instructions clearly and no guidance at all, expecting me to know how to do and what they want. Everyday I will get scolded or made sarcastic remarks on me as below my dignity. It is like I will be made to quit anyday soon and it is because of me and not them.

But what can I do? Complain to law society and LS will side with me a yet to qualify lawyer? By then I may not even get my qualification.
Does LS even know what’s happening in the industry at all in the treatment toward trainees and junior associates?

Not sure why there are comments alleging trolls. Just because it doesn’t apply to your case doesn’t mean others don’t get it.
