Thankyou in advance

GF is 32 and I’m 28. She wants kids within 2 years, understandably. I never envisioned having kids that early (more like late 30s), but I like her a lot. Anyone else gone through something similar?

My fiancé will NOT stop talking about her ex. After I found out they were texting arguing she justified it by saying it was about the dogs and not them. Even though Her social media is full of his pics. She still sends him $50 a month for dog food, still goes to work right by his place and suspiciously needs keys. I try to bring it up and I get dismantled for being too mean and making “false accusations.” How much more obvious can it be?

How much less does an associate make at Constangy vs. one of the 4 Big L&Es?

Sales and Trading vs PE? What is comp, WLB and career trajectory like. Doing my MBA now and likely going into consulting, but not sure. Might plan to exit to PE but if S&T offers decent hours and similar pay, may just skip the whole consulting to PE business.

Talking to the opposite sex at the gym: yes or no? (Or same sex)

hi all, currently have two offers:

1: EY - FDD, home city, very good $$ for FDD

2: PwC - post-merger integration, DDV team (essentially M&A Consulting) - bigger city, always been keen to move

Coming as a Senior in Audit, with recent FDD exposure (2 deals, obviously not much). I was looking for something more than just number crunching, wanting a mix of quant / quali / strategic work. M&A Advisory or a Corp Strategy role is where I'm looking to end up long term.

Thanks in advance!

Any info on WLB at NielsenIQ.. and pay ballpark figure for 7.5 YOE?

Family Law Software? Pros and cons?

Does anybody work with a smoker? Seriously NOBODY rips cigs in this industry. Just seems weird that, in my 7 years, I’ve never worked with a smoker

Booked UA biz, PHI-ORD. Delayed and re-routed PHI-IAD-ORD in economy (but still on original ticket). Will PQMs be based on the actual/longer routing at 200% fare class bonus?

Platinum Elite here, do you all just ask if any upgrades are available or rely on the front desk agent to upgrade you? I feel like a d-bag asking.

Pretty random question: Does anyone know if the Deloitte Boston office is open late night on a Saturday? I forgot something in the office, and am in the city around 11:00 pm so considering to stop by

Has anyone gone through the interview process for the the ADA Program in the LA DA’s office? Would love to know more about what it was like and what questions to expect. Thanks in advance!

I’ve been unsustainably swamped for months. Partner said they wanted to add an additional, more senior associate to the team on one massive case that went from “stayed” to “on fire” in the span of a month. I said that sounded awesome and the thought of someone else having to take on some responsibilities was such a relief… so why do I feel competitive and threatened now that the senior associate has actually been added? 🙄

How do you get good at thinking on your feet? I find I always need time to think and analyse before being able to answer client queries (even those that are considered simple by others). I don't want to rush and get it wrong. I avoid phone calls for this reason which isn't great when you're in the service industry so it's starting to impact my career.

I’m a third year in corporate and want to switch to tax. Am I too late? How do I ask my firm?

In-house comp at firms like KKR or Blackstone? Thx in advance.

What firms are pushing/expected to require/have formally required return to office after Labor Day?

Looking to get out of a firm that does majority insurance defense and into BL commercial lit. Wondering if anyone has successfully done this as a first or second year, and if they have any advice on making the switch?

Doing a federal clerkship and thinking of my options after. Anyone in NJ/NY/PA biglaw lit group with collegial and pleasant work environment? I do not care about billable requirements/workload, just salary and don’t want to be treated like shit.

“Absolutely no rush on this today—just send it by 6am tomorrow!”

Anyone else at a firm with a fiscal year starting November 1 in limbo with hours? I've hit my bonus hours but there's no way to hit the next bonus level in just a month so I'm just gonna give the firm like 180 free hours...

Opinion on Quinn? (Would prefer an opinion from people who actually work there and aren’t just bitter from opposing them)

What do you think are some distinctive personality traits among people who are drawn to big law for the money, compared to people who seek out more creative, idealistic or caring jobs, like a writer, journalist, artist, doctor, nurse, public defender or plaintiff-side personal injury attorney?

Dropped off my kids to school this morning and just felt unsettled. It’s so hard to concentrate on work today.

Thoughts on recruiter responsiveness? How long do you wait to engage a different recruiter?

I’m a junior in big law and in the short time I’ve been here, I’ve noticed that counsels produce perfect drafts and yet aren’t partners but partners can’t write two sentences without numerous typos. Shouldn’t counsels be partners and partners counsels instead?

A partner emailed you, recognizing your hard work and thanking you (you billed aweful lot of hours this month). Do you respond or not?

Random partner asked a litigation-related question to a partner I frequently work with (i’m a transactional associate). My partner cc’d me and said for me to briefly look. Asked the library. They got me a great case. Sent it back. Now the random partner is asking for more cases in another circuit.

I haven’t done caselaw research since 1L and this isn’t even my practice… wtf do I do (I am fully utilized in my normal work and have a few deals closing soon…)

If you take vacation, is the onus on you to make up that billable time? If so, how do you enjoy long vacations?

What does venture counsel mean at WSGR? I just lateraled and am working with one - he seems to be doing all the junior work for the team so am confused?

On the verge of leaving law but getting cold feet. Could someone talk with me? I feel like it’s just a matter of not getting good mentorship but I’m concerned my feelings might not change elsewhere. I just don’t know. I wish I could just have a mentor and guidance

What corporate practice has better longevity if your goal is to stay in big law for as long as possible: M&A or Capital Markets?
