After you make partner you have to pay your own insurance. Partners with spouses that do not have company provided insurance (mine is a 1099 employee, for example): how much are you paying per month for family health insurance? Any tips here?

National insurance

how’s everyone feeling about this?

Quite miffed as I just got a small pay rise and now I think this plus the upcoming not rises in utilities and inflation will pretty much cancel it out.

This country is fucked lol

Can someone point me to some material where I can read about profit sharing vs 401k. I get the concept, but I am trying to understand is 10% profit sharing vested over 5 years better than an employee 401k match of 6%?

From my understanding 10% PS is better because it’s just a standard 10% on top of whatever I contribute though it takes 5 years to vest. Does this mean if I leave before 5 years I don’t get any of it?

Is it normal to pay for monthly OB visits while pregnant? I have BCBS and thought they would be covered 100%?

What funds do people have in their 401k plans? And how did y’all decide allocation? Can’t tell if I should be more aggressive given I’m in my 20s.

I have a 401k from my previous employer in Meryl Lynch. Current 401k is in fidelity. I would like to know if it’s easier to roll over ex employer contributions to fidelity (or) open an independent IRA account. I don’t intend to withdraw money from or take a loan on 401ks

I was recently diagnosed with ADHD and just started medication treatment, and I didn’t realize something was missing this entire time. My brain finally feels so calm!!

Studying for the bar, and my first 2 years of practice exacerbated my symptoms so badly. I couldn’t keep up with the long hours at work! I feel like I have a fighting chance now!

Wavering between tired and happy. Finally getting my stamina back post covid. I've walked 10 miles in the past week. Pre covid I was walking between 2 and 4 miles a day. But I can tell I'm still not 100 percent. I'm so tired in the evenings. Hopefully that will fade the next couple of weeks.

Does anyone knows about Virtusa ? They are offering me considerably high offer compared to others but I am not sure as I don't know much about the company or anyone who works there ? Project is Legato Healthcare.

Any help will be appreciated.

Hi,

If total CTC offered is 9LPA in TCS, what will be in hand salary ?

Have received joining date of may and my pregnancy is due in april and so I may be able to join only by august. What do i do ? Shall i inform the HR to extend the joining? (but I am afraid, I don't want to lose this opportunity) or I join now and then take an ML ? or I accept the offer letter now, try joining and worst case postpone in the end ?

Will the org support me through this ?

I am currently in ID and wanting a miracle in-house position. I recently learned that the VP of Lit for an ins. carrier was promoted leaving her position open. I’m unsure if they’re planning to fill that vacant role. I’d like to approach her about my general interest of going in house (asking her how she did it herself) and mention my interest with her company. I know this is a sensitive topic as she gives me cases. I have a great professional and personal rapport with her. Any tips?

Any attorney referrals in Brooklyn for a tenant having major issues with their landlord? (Just moved into Apt that’s pest infested, has no gas/heat, and landlord is totally unresponsive)

I have a lead on a great paying Sr Business Affairs role. Can do fully remote. DM for details.

What's the story on getting a remote part time job at a company that isn't a client of EY? Will it be breaching any independence rules (or any other type of rule)?

Has anyone been Veeva certified? If so, what did you think? Have you seen any ROI yet?

Definitely not a fan of Westin's "Eat Well" proposition. I'm working in the room at 2:00 AM and the most appetizing menu item is a cold turkey avocado and arugula wrap. I just want a burger and fries!

Was told by a recruiter that 100k was too much to ask for with 2 YOE in consulting. Thoughts?

Is it easier to go from product management to customer success, or customer success to product management?

This job is a lot better if you don't care about the bonus and hours requirement. I can pretty easily bill 1700 hours annually and my firm so far hasn't cared in the slightest. Worrying about hitting 2000 hours for the bonus used stress me out so much, and I just don't think it's worth it. Base salaries are ridiculous and way more than enough to finance my lifestyle.

Month end! How many hours did we bill for March? And how many of us entered it all in the last two days 😬🙋🏻‍♀️

What sort of work is considered corporate finance? This was referenced in a energy practice related interview and am not sure what sort of work that would entail.

New to due diligence and not sure the timeline of projects. Tips to stay organized of the project and timeline, and how to update those leading the deal? Just keep track of new info and provide as necessary?

I hate this job. That is all.

I am a mid level and have received an offer from a regional big law firm in a non-market paying location. I believe the firm would be a great fit and the location is where I want to be. The biggest issue is money. I’d be lateraling from full cravath in a major market and the initial offer I received is a bit off that (read: 50% salary reduction). While the market is cheaper in some respects, housing is not. How far can I expect this firm to go to in terms of compensation? Any negotiation tips?

How many matters is typical for one associate to handle (BL lit)? I know it is group-specific, but just trying to get a general idea. I’m a 2nd year and I am the only associate staffed on about 30 cases-meaning I keep track of all deadlines, do all day to day assignments, keep on top of following up with client/OC, and all research/drafting. Partners handle deps/court but that is about it. Is this a normal case load to be responsible for as a jr? I being dramatic by thinking this is too much?

First year trainee here. Having the standard wobbles but generally surviving.

My question is - how can I tell if I'm doing well? More specifically, what common and avoidable mistakes (specific or general) do trainees make, and what attitude or actions impress you?

Recently overheard some associates complaining about another trainee and now I have the fear... I want to get this right. Thanks in advance.

My senior associate takes 1 week to get back to me with comments and then tells me that I need to turn the document asap. This has happened several times already and I’ve had to pull all nighters to meet these insane deadlines when it’s clear that they just waited until the very last minute to get back to me… any advice? Feel like I’m burning out

When you're slow and filling hours with CLEs, how many hours do you do this for? Is three/four hours good enough?

Any boutique firms that do IP and don’t have billable hours? (I already know of BB)

3rd year associate. Former fed law clerk. Working at ID firm. Doing slip and falls and wrecks. Recently received big law offer to do products. Really want to go. Gave notice to current firm. Current firm really wants me to stay, counters that it will try to get me salary as close to big law offer and give me complex work. Stay at ID firm or accept big law offer?

Thoughts on Quinn Emmanuel? How grade conscious are they?

It's super frustrating to be "time poor".

That's seemingly just the nature of working in Biglaw.

But every day you have the option to buy back your time.

How do you buy back time?

It's simple—by saving and investing.

And you don't need to be uber wealthy to regain control of your time.

Consider this…

Does your firm let you take 28-30 December off? Many of my team members won’t be working those days and I decided last minute that I’d like to travel somewhere between Christmas and the New Year.

Third yet at a firm in a major market (not NYC). Pay is slightly below market and bonuses are not market either. What is the going rate for a holiday gift for a secretary that I was assigned to 2 months ago but has done some work for me through the year and also a paralegal that I have worked with all year?

Thoughts on Steptoe & Johnson? Particularly DC office. Considering applying. Thanks!
