Any BigLaw tax groups not slammed/understaffed nowadays? We're in middle of our second big wave of departures since January without a single replacement yet, and it's looking like time to escape (unless every tax group is experiencing this).

This sounds like Weil. I know a couple of people who left in recent months.

Not Weil, but good to know most firms aren't understaffed in tax.

I my plan was always to stay here until I'm ready to go in-house, but this is starting to feel like a death spiral (i.e. the more short staffed it gets the more additional people want to leave, plus no one with relatively similar options will want to come here).

McDermotts lost a few I think.

I'm a marketer and I'm having a hard time getting my clients to listen to me.

I have been in marketing for 10 years now. I've worked with hundreds of clients and have been able to increase their sales by over $1 million each year.

But every time I go into a meeting with a new client, they ignore everything I say. They just want to talk about their product. They don't seem interested in learning how to market it better.

Is it normal for a big4 to take over two months in the interview process?

I know that some other associates at my level are approximately 30% behind other associates in hours on a month to month basis. Yet all of these associates say they are “at capacity”, and myself and another associate still end up being assigned work instead of them. How do we handle this? For reference, all associates are around the firms minimum requirement, it’s just that a few of us are 30+% over and it is leading to burnout.
