Yes. Left a notorious Florida ID firm for another ID firm that doesn’t work me to the bone. Went from constant anxiety to now just meh. It’s much better on my mental and physical health but. But…it’s still just fine.

Not sure how long I’ll do this whole law thing but we’ll see. Stick around in insurance for a while and then maybe do compliance work.

I'm a first yr attorney at an insurance firm and am in the process of interviewing for an in-house position at a tech company. The position is pretty much generalist, but I get the impression I'd be working mostly on SaaS and partnership transactions. I definitely think I would like the transactional work better, but I am concerned about the long-term earning potential vs. partnership. How common is it to eventually make $350k+ in-house/how difficult is it to transition back to a firm? Thanks!

In a recent All hands we found out that this year there will be no pay raises nor promotions based off merit. Is it time to jump ship?
