Same lmao ending at 10pm is a pretty average day for me.

The two points at which I would say it is considered really bad is: (1) You're not getting sufficient sleep on a regular basis or (2) you have to work more than 10 hours on the weekend.

Is this about the MBFC Tower 1 firm or firms in general?

For those of you looking for jobs, it is likely that partners are more prudent in hiring even if the firm isn’t on a hiring freeze. It is unlikely that you will be employed through a zoom interview. Let’s hope for phase 3 to come quickly so people can get back into office and partners will be more willing to conduct interviews in person.

But I thought the law firms usually boast about how they are willing to embrace technology?

I posted about the Baker vacancy earlier.

If you wanna take on the verbal insults you will get on a daily basis, toxic environment where colleagues don't really help you and almost criminal work hours. Then yea, the 7k salary is pretty worth it

There's been a rash of associate turnovers recently because of the working environment.

There are a select few at certain departments of magic circle and white shoe firms in singapore office who get North of 14k at 2y pie (sg scale) and end work before covid times at around 7-9pm.

Depends also lah. If you are 0 to 85th percentile of law batch, to get an opportunity there is alr v good. That's the only way to get BM. If you between 85th and 100% percentile, then of course should aim for the real International firms (ie no JV except for CC)
