Going to depend on what office and the people you work with for culture. Salary will be significantly less than market in any market. Retention is great at the partner level, but some churn at the associate level. They are good at what they do and it’s a good place for training. If your main concern is money it’s also a good way to get experience and lateral into a biglaw position.

Thanks! JL does feel like a good segue into big law and a great opportunity to learn L&E.

What about work life balance, is it still hybrid?

Below market salary is interesting, I’m coming from a small firm that pays pretty well for the area and my level of experience. I truthfully don’t know what market salary rates are. Can I expect something around 140k potentially? For context, I’m considering the NJ office.

As stated above, WLB really depends on the office and the partners. I have great WLB at JL and the partners in my office are great. Billable hour requirement is 1850. 50 of that can be training/pro bono.

So just had my first Amazon interview interaction the other day and its BS. I got invited to take part in the interview process by first answering a bunch of situational/case study like problems and then had to complete this long work style assessment after which they requested a call/interview only to find out the comp for the role is way below my target. Why would you make people waste so much time on your stupid assessments before asking expected salary range?!

im 10 weeks into my contract as a PO at a large satelline/wireless provider (synonym: plate) and the company has offered to bring me on as an internal employee.

the salaried offer is for 104k ( $52/hr)/ no bonus

problem here is that i work 48-52hrs/wk & get paid overtime, so taking this offer would actually be a paycut by about $250-300/wk

I hit my one year at my company on the 15th of November. I had lunch with my boss on the 10th and he mentioned a raise but not how much or when it would be effective.

Flash forward to now, we’ve had 2 paychecks since then and I haven’t received anything. He said last week he would let me know this week, but I’m getting frustrated.

He’s raising my billing rate effective Jan. 1, and I’m worried I won’t get my raise until then. Anyone have something similar happen?
