Hi all! I just got a Senior tax associate role in industry ($85k, MCOL; 17% more than I currently make). Enjoyed the people I interviewed with; my only hesitation is that the company itself has had a rough couple of years (healthcare company, had a few bad acquisitions that they’ve since shed off). Their busy season is just January and early February, with their team working until about 7 PM during the week and a few Saturdays. I’m interested, but it’s also my 1st offer; what would you do?

Does anyone have experience or thoughts about life after big law (whatever that means)? I'm a third year tax associate and seriously worrying whether I've chosen a practice area that is too "niche" to find something after. Do I even want to practice law? Do I just need a vacation?? Any and all insights are welcome!

^ The above was cross posted to another bowl, but also wondering whether it's stupid to leave big law and maternity leave / benefits at this stage (planning on kids in a few years)

🐠 I need your help. Just got an offer over the phone and I will need to call them tomorrow to negotiate the details. They emailed me saying the salary is “higher than 60k” but over the phone they mentioned they might be able to go up to 70k. Should I start asking for 70k (I will be making 65k at my current firm next year)? Any particular benefits I should consider negotiating/ asking about? TIA!
