As an employment lawyer, I can tell you that firms will use the probationary period to let newly hired associates go.
There’s also standard clauses in employment contracts to say that the firm is not required to provide you any work.
Any idea what's the sentiment on the ground in terms of private practice market? (local law firms)

that's the thing about our sh*ty immature/underdeveloped legal market. there's hardly any market intelligence or legal news sites like in London or HK. Need to rely on word of mouth

are there firms where junior and mid-level assocs are in danger of being let go?
