Partners do like to hire and fire lots of associates so they don't have to pay as many senior associates and management. They sure as hell froze pay and fired a ton of people in 2020 and made everyone else double up. The pay when accounting for inflation in accounting has stayed flat or fallen until just recently. Now they're having a "talent shortage." Go figure. The partners will happily make you work 50-90 hours during busy season which may be once or twice per year. And, don't get me started on the industry wide billing for time and lying on timesheets to meet the budget.
