Any insight on BakerHostetler? I am weighing whether to lateral there, and am wondering whether they are planning to pay market soon.

I lateraled to a firm that told me upfront that they will never set a new market salary or bonus but they will always match it. If you want to make sure that a new firm does the same I suggest you look elsewhere.

No but a similar firm in revenue/size that consistently lagged behind in associate pay. To my understanding that firm is still not paying market and (or paid special covid bonuses). I think the firms that pay market are pretty well established at this point and the other have no intention of doing so but that’s an outside opinion.

I’ve heard the culture is good. Also know they do not pay market and will not pay market.
They are more like 50-60k below market once you hit 4-5th year

And bonuses are like nothing. Definitely not market.

Shoot me a PM.

I’ve heard great things about the culture and know people who are happy there. I think they pay like 5k-10k below market which let’s be real is still a lot of money

Idk. I plan on looking into them more at some point because despite that they seem to have a pretty low attrition rate and I’ll take a good culture if it meant I was still making over 200k. But I also want to try to stay in Biglaw for a while and of course plans can always change.

Hello fellow SAP Consultants!
I am SAP HCM consultant having 4.10 years of experience. I feel that this module doesn’t have any growth. My first switch took me to 9LPA from 6LPA and now the second switch is being offered for 11.5LPA where I can see my fellow friends in SAP having more than 15LPA at the same experience on their second switch itself. Should I be worried about my skillset? Any insights would highly be appreciated. I feel stuck.

I'm a third year plaintiff's employment law attorney and I'm looking to move to defense, preferably still in employment law. I received an offer from a midsize firm that primarily focuses on PI with little-to-no employment law practice, so I'll have a bit of a learning curve. Offer is $90k, billable hours of 2100. Is this reasonable? I'm dead-set on leaving my current job, and this would be a $20k pay increase - which makes me believe I'm leaning towards taking it for those reasons only.

I feel like it’s reasonable to not kill myself further to fit in more/turn things around faster at this point, but am I being unreasonable?
