How do I ask for pay parity with peers? External hires of course make a higher base, but some reps that have been moved up are making a higher base due to starting higher when hired as SDRs. I am a top 10% rep in the org, so do I approach it based on performance or parity? Also I know better than to name drop, but is it acceptable to admit that I know what my peers make when making the ask?

What’s something you feel like you do really well as a product manager but that your manager doesn’t notice?

Honestly being laid off sounds pretty good as a staff working 65 hours a week 🤷‍♂️ would be making more money doing nothing.

When should I start to get worried that corporate is so slow? Have only billed 230 hours for the year so far and it doesn’t seem like things are picking up soon so getting nervous since my firm has a billable hours minimum requirement.

Public service announcement: please update your bio. I am in-house counsel and I regularly check bios and/or LinkedIn if you’re working for me or across from me, and I am shocked at how many senior associates and even partners in biglaw have no bio, no representative transactions, etc. You’ve already done the work, show it off! Such an easy way to sell yourself (and such an easy way to leave me wondering if you’re qualified if it’s missing).

What are hours like for a lawyer within a hedge/PE/VC fund? I’ve heard anecdotally they can be better than BL

Notice question. Can a partner ask you to defer leaving till a particular deal is closed etc, beyond your 2 weeks notice? Even if they can how badly will you burn bridges or ruin relationships by politely declining?

Transactional associates, how many deals should a junior be on at one time? Of course it will vary by involvement, but assume these are deals with either a midlevel and a partner or just the junior and a partner. Mainly thinking commercial real estate finance (borrower or lender side), but generally interested in all transaction areas.

My toxic hobby is trying to figure out how to bill when I start a project and find myself staring into the abyss 4 hours later 😩

Being able to flirt (and potentially sleep) with the former colleague(s) you wanted to flirt with without the fear of seeing them again on Monday

Is it just me or does this forum lean lit?

How do I find a good therapist in my area? I don’t have any promising referrals from friends, so I’m having trouble figuring out where to start. I don’t have any specific issue I’m trying to sort out, just looking for someone to generally talk through some things and maybe offer a different perspective.

1 billable hour last week…. 0 so far this week…. Junior in M&A. Scary times.

Are you more likely to get guaranteed year end bonus if you lateral towards end of the year or does it not matter?

Anyone else notice that a bunch of non-market firms pulled their NY job postings as of November 1? I was hoping to see how much below market they paid!

Corporate juniors. What are you guys annualizing? I’ll probably finish somewhere between 1300-1400 billable hours.

Restructuring/Bankruptcy associates, how slow have you been this year so far? Seems like industry wide it’s been a very quiet year.

Senior M&A attorney. How hard would it be to transition into a fund? What kind of comp are attorneys pulling at funds? Any insight helpful!

I'm on a long term project (likely to continue on in perpetuity) and the relationship among team members is getting kind of crazy. A lot of stress seems to be building up among partners. I'm the senior associate assisting in the management of all workflows. My tasks are complete and accurately executed, but things are getting super toxic lately. Has anyone successfully disarmed a bomb like this? It's getting a bit wild and my next move is to try lateraling if this toxicity keeps increasing.
