A company will call themselves a family then fire someone who's just had a kid because he's maybe only putting in 50,60,70 hours instead of the usual 100..
It's not about how many hours you put in. It's about how much you get done in those hours. Punching time isn't the only metric. Also what company uses the word "family" 🤣
Katrina isn't wrong about the other associates working 100 hours a week, eat dinner every night at the office, and don't go on dates let alone have a baby. The very least those associates should be rewarded for their hard work.
@@newera478 Just saying if Brian is going to given slack, the rest of the associates could get something as well. Like special vacation leave that can't be questioned.
@@Frenzyshark I'm sure those associates working extra hours get paid more than Brian who spends time with his family. There are some people who don't want to spend their future working facelessly for the company and ending up dying alone with no legacy to show for.
@@newera478 They wouldn't get paid more if their salaries are the same, which they would be if they're at the same level in the same firm. There is more to life than family, and some people are perfectly happy to spend their lives working. There's nothing wrong with either choice, but there is something wrong with a difference in treatment between two people in the same job.
Brian was there at the lowest of times and he delivered for Louis when he needed it most. Louis knows the importance of loyalty more than anyone at the firm. Plus, he is a named partner and can decide who to keep and who to fire at the end of the day.
I agree to some extent. I think personal loyalty should definitely be acknowledged/rewarded but not exploited too much. Eventually Brian does leave the firm but on his terms so everyone wins. If I ever was in a position of authority, I'd like my subordinates to be social/loyal to me within reason while they continue to perform work. I wouldn't want them to rely to heavily on being social with me as a way to compensate their bad work performance. And if they didn't deliberately cause problems in the office, that goes a long way to me keeping them.
So there were two people , and none of them heard Louis walk in , leave seeing him? That too in an office with Marble tiles and everyone wearing formal shoes? okay .
I had to take a deep breath when Katrina arrived at the end of Season 2. What a stunning beauty Amanda Schull is. Pleasing to see she was transformed from a disagreeable backstabber to Louis' cheer leader. Great chemistry with Rick Hoffman.
@@raopsepol You can fire anyone without reason. Wrongful termination is only if you violate labor laws and fire someone for a reason you can't -- health insurance coverage, race, gender, don't give notice, etc. Nor is he likely to sue his firm as that would make him unemployable.
For better or worse that’s what life is like at a big law firm. I’d also argue long hours are not inherently toxic depending on the work culture and what you are getting out of it in return.
I think she's implying that's what she did, because she would have taken time off to have a baby if she was able but wouldn't, so why is he getting that special treatment when he's worse than she ever was
Louis can’t have it both ways. He can’t have an independent metric, and then not use it. He can’t tell Katrina she has to be the one to decide who goes, and then reject her decision
Louis is terrible at being managing partner, just like his pet Brian he doesn't cut it. Robert Zane was right in the early seasons when he said Louis is not name partner material reason why Jessica never promoted him.
Interesting, so if you want to stay in the firm you need to work 100 hours a week, eat dinner at the firm and most importantly never have a child because it distracts you from your work and messes your time management, she really is a bad person she was going to fire the guy for having a child and she never shied about it, she asked him about his child directly
Katrina’s relationship with the soy guy was one of the stupidest story lines. Season 8 looks promising, but I originally stopped watching because seasons 6 and 7 were so bad.
Brian sat in between the 4 top associates according to Katrinas list, Donna pointed that out to her to show her that even though a person might not put up numbers they make those around them better
Firing Brian then storming out of the restaurant and leaving him the bill, that’s cold.
LOL Probably already ate and paid and finishing up drinks and conversation.

@@AchillesSeverus normally, yes. However, a law firm only makes money off of billable hours. They want their associates pushing 120+ hours a week.
@@LeonardBMCcCoy So the longer the hours they put in, the more they can bill their clients?
"You asked for this job, YOU ARE DOING IT!"🤬🤬🤬

its obvious that louis should go too

I don't understand why Katrina couldn't just fire one less person and keep Brian
Because if she fires a more deserving associate and the named partners catch her, that's going to be a huge problem.
the firm want to avoid getting sued for wrongful termination.

because they had an affair

She fine af
@@unknownsource4359 Right! I would be happy seeing her everyday lol
Fr. Her and Jessica Pearson (you can also include Jenny) just have that “it” factors. They’re just natural beauties.
I like Katrina she’s so beautiful….😊
Is she praising toxic work culture indirectly?

Indirectly? N o, it's pretty direct
Yep
So Louis tells Katrina to do her job, but then stops her from doing it?
Yeah that's called a job
I never liked the Brian and Katrina pairing. He always seemed like such a whiner.
Yep... the Brian and Mike characters are interchangeable in that regard.
Louis can’t have it both ways. He can’t have an independent metric, and then not use it. He can’t tell Katrina she has to be the one to decide who goes, and then reject her decision
Louis in a nutshell
did this show really do a multiverse episode
Do we even have employment law in this country (or this fictional universe)?
The firm is highly prestigious and if an associate doesn't want to work more hours than they have to there are ten other applicants that would
Not really to both
So louis just walks in without knocking?
Sounds like jealousy
Katrina and Mike should have been end game.

No but if they have to fire someone they’re going to fire the person doing less
Which is exactly why 40 hour work weeks should be the maximum allowed by law@@E3742O

I’d have been down for her to have the guy as her protégé but yeah they dropped the ball hard
Soy guy?
First thing she should’ve done was go to Harvey.
I like her
Saving private Brian.
Katrina was right though
You stop running

Yes, it is
@@jimethotabut is it? really think about it.
This scene alone makes me despise louis, he says one thing then completely does a 180 and says the opposite
Nobody works 100 hours a week, zip it.
They do
Lawyers work for more than that. But their billables are high so nobody points that out.
