Australian Firm Too Secretive About Redundancies

Australian professional whistleblower website site.. Firm Spy reveals that Qld firm Herbert Geer Rundle haven’t exactly been forthright about redundancies….

Firm Spy write:

In contrast to Australian law firms which have been forthright about lawyers and support staff redundancies, and those that have even announced that office stationary supplies are being reduced, mid-tier firm Herbert Geer has apparently gone on a silent sacking-spree.
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.
