I like the firm, but like any firm it will depend on your office and specific team. So, if you like the people you’ve interviewed with, I say give them a shot. It’s definitely not a sweatshop environment and people are nice (bad behavior isn’t common — I’ve yet to have seen any partners yell or insult any associates).

Is it true NRF does not pay market (Cravath) bonuses?

Not true. It’s Cravath pay AND bonus.

Meh. Not much of a transactional shop these days in the US at least. Abysmal PPP which means they probably won’t ever be a player again as I don’t think they can attract decent talent at the partner ranks

PPP generally isn't a great indicator so long as a firm has market "comp per book" but Norton Rose in participle has a super wide spread of associate comp with probably half the partners in US making under 1mm and a good number are making less than associates. Probably a bit to do with PPP, but not necessarily. Probably not a surprise they are doing barely any corporate partner hiring and it seems most of their hires lately have been in products liability, etc.

Not sure that I want BigLaw partner rank. From an associate perspective, seems like a great opportunity especially for those not in BigLaw before. 1900 bonus eligible billable. Large reputable platform. Everyone seems collegial and nice

I know a couple of people in ECEB in Houston, they generally seem happy and to have a very good WLB. I like the firm and the people, feel free to DM if you have specific questions.

I’m in-house at a small company (60 people), started right out of law school about 5 years ago. We had a legal team of 5 then. Everyone has left and we just hired a new GC. I went from $70k to $100k a little over a year ago. I am expecting an offer from a firm doing business law work but think this might be an opportunity to go to my current employer and ask for a significant raise, with new offer in hand. Any thoughts or advice going into this?
