We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.

Now, the negatives—reiterating what many have already said: abysmal pay, work that is heavily focused on compliance (primarily licensing applications), and a management team that lacks professionalism and operates with clear favoritism. Senior management (PA level and above) is either technically incompetent or, if technically sound, lacks leadership and management skills. A strong grasp of legal fundamentals should be expected at that level, but this is not always the case at KARM. Career progression is arbitrary—being in the "good books" of seniors matters far more than talent or expertise.
Profiling and favoritism are deeply ingrained. Employees are categorized into "good" or "bad" books early on, and factors like skills, EQ, or IQ hold little weight. There is no structured mentorship—associates are expected to know everything from day one, and senior management often provides little to no meaningful guidance. While responsibilities are shared across levels, pay scales remain rigidly hierarchical.
Finally, always check a firm's attrition rate—especially with smaller firms—to gauge long-term prospects. A quick LinkedIn search will show that KARM has experienced a significant exodus almost every year. The firm is not growing, and the pay and skills gained do not justify staying. It is a sinking ship, and the returns—both financial and professional—are simply not worth it.

Do i have to teach you basic maths now?
It's 10+2, where 10 is fixed and 2 is annual bonus.
So 10-10% of 10 = 9
9/12= 75k per month.
Nice one. The primary medium of instruction in all the three MNLUs will be Marathi. MHCET will be held in Marathi only.
Hope the system doesn’t fail you.
"He was the son of a lawyer, often born into a family where the practice of law had been a tradition for generations. He was a Hindu and, more likely than not, a brahmin. He was born in an urban area into a wealthy or upper middle-class family. He received both his baccalaureate and law degrees in India. He was a high achiever, often the recipient of prestigious academic awards. He began his professional career at age twenty-four when he commenced the practice law before the high court of his home state. He may have been among the two dozen who was active in politics during these years. Twenty-two years later, after having reached the front rank of the bar of his high court, he was appointed to that court. A dozen years later, by which time he was very senior, usually its chief justice, he was appointed to the SCI. It was his seniority that raised him to the recruitment plateau, but to get to the SCI, he usually needed to be from a particular high court or geographic region. He was no younger than fifty-one and no older than sixty-two. He may have met the usual criteria of merit—integrity, professional competence, incorruptibility, and neutrality towards litigants—but was not selected for that reason. His religion, seniority, state and region of origin, among other considerations, were more weighty than merit as traditionally defined. He was 58.5 years of age when he arrived in Delhi and served for six and a half years until mandatory retirement forced his departure at age sixty-five. He remained active after leaving the bench. Serving on officially appointed commissions or tribunals and chamber practice were the most common post-retirement activities. He died when he was on the threshold of his eightieth year."
