Herbert Geer first dropped the Rundle, and now the Bundle!
According to one source:
Herbert Geer has let some of their corporate lawyers from their Brisbane and Melbourne offices go within the past few months. They seem to have escaped attention for doing so, however, because they are only mid-tier (if even that). Like other firms they didn’t have the courage to pucker up and simply admit to the lawyers they culled that they were being let go due to the economic downturn. No, that would mean they would have to on some level fcking acknowledge reality. Instead they claimed that the lawyers they let go weren’t pulling their weight and were lousy employees. I guess at the end of the day they haven’t acted all too differently from other firms. But the moral of the story is if someone was working for a firm that was at least up front with them and the fact they were being made redundant, at least that has some modicum of honesty to it.
Following this critique, a spokesperson commented that the firm had
made two or three people redundant and that we, as do all businesses, have redundancies from time to time.
Has a fear of redundacies descended on Herbert Geer? What about at your firm?
