Looked into albany a few years back. I think base is $125k at the bigger firms.

I think so? Increases were only like $5k a year though. I remember I was discussing partnership prospects (I was also a mid), and they were very transparent. The firm I interviewed with had an 8 year partner track, partnership is completely lock step (the partners I was talking to made around $500k).

Oh god. Unless you wanna live up there Albany folks try to go to the city cuz of comp. Work quality is way diff too

Most of the decent paying jobs in VT aren’t in or around Bennington, though. Albany is the closest place with the kind of work OP is likely looking for.

I think it's GT, Nixon Peabody, some of the L&E firms and then some of the local firms. Pay is typically a lot less than NYC market, unless you want to get into lobbying. Those firms make bank.

Never thought of lobbying work, wouldn’t even know what that entails lol.

First payment is weeks late and only made on demand. Month 2 not paid. Month 3 is overdue a few days. Should I file suit? Loop in my boss? Other options? It’s 2/3 my total savings.
