If MOM & LawSoc are that efficient in their work, the law fraternity will not be in such a deplorable state now. Agree? |
Yeah this is why big firms tend to have better cultures than smaller firms - big firms have other partners to keep the errant partner in check, and have an interest in preventing what may end up being a reputational blow to the firm if things escalate further. Small firms on the other hand, you usually have a sole proprietor partner in which case good luck trying to change him, or a small bunch of partners who would band together and protect their own kind. Don't think the public would also care much if some kind of unknown Tan Ah Kow LLP is found to have an toxic work environment, compared to say a Big 4, unless the abuse is as egregious as what Samuel Seow did.
If in a small firm, just leave.
