Tim Corcoran, a longtime legal industry consultant, highlighted that the pressure on associates in Biglaw to comply with demanding requirements is relentless, stating, "If the partners want associates to... until they burn out and leave, that's their prerogative." He noted that new associates continuously arrive, often willing to conform to whatever business demands to achieve career success.
In discussing the competitive nature of Biglaw, Corcoran pointed out, "If that means slogging into the office only to sit alone all day... there are always takers." This underscores the challenging work environment that associates face, especially when remote work offers advantages of comfort and flexibility.
