Of late we find ourselves getting disheartened and a few of us are considering leaving due to double standards and feel we no longer can work with current juniors.
Learned friends would you rather work with juniors that are:
1. Someone with good drafting abilities but timid at client interaction and engagement
2. Good or competent at client engagement but not the best legal work

Huh don't understand. Are you referring to yourself as the junior or the senior here? Who's showing favoritism to who? Your narration isn't clear.
Anyway small firms are the worst places to be in. Limited work and a pool of juniors fighting to be put on the firm's biggest cases (which isn't saying much btw). Ofc clear favourites will emerge and the less favoured juniors will languish with the small unwanted cases.
And, it goes without saying, below market pay.
Just get out of there ASAP.
