Anyone here familiar with Russell Investments? Interested in knowing what it's like and if asset management typically pays below, in line, or over the average salary expectations for auxiliary roles like IT?

Not sure about IT roles, but haven’t heard great things about them. I work in IM and before my current role I was doing some research on them and the results weren’t great! Apparently the firm has changed a lot under new ownership.

I've actually heard the comp there is very competitive, so I wouldn't necessarily worry about that. Not sure about culture/WLB/etc.

My friend who is there says the compensation is very fair and well structured. She said its in line with what other companies pay for the same roles. So probably not looking above average, probably more like average.

I heard it was a fine place to work but there may be new ownership that you should probably look into.

They were bought out by PE in 2016 and there were rumours of being sold in 2019. You think it's likely they would be divested since they're past that 5 year mark?

I used to work there. Expect lower than market rate pay across the board. For nearly any position.

also forgot to say that nearly all IT roles have been transferred to Mumbai, India. Very few future IT roles will be based out of the USA.

I am a mid level and have received an offer from a regional big law firm in a non-market paying location. I believe the firm would be a great fit and the location is where I want to be. The biggest issue is money. I’d be lateraling from full cravath in a major market and the initial offer I received is a bit off that (read: 50% salary reduction). While the market is cheaper in some respects, housing is not. How far can I expect this firm to go to in terms of compensation? Any negotiation tips?

Hi all, I have a question regarding retirement accounts. I am not sure if I should choose a Roth or 401k (company has 4+2% match). Currently 23, base salary is ~100k and investments have brought 45k this year which has me teetering between a 22-24% tax bracket. Wondering what the usual tax bracket is of people retired (around 65yo) as I’m not sure anything would bring in significant income with the exception of investments. In my case would a Roth make sense? Appreciate any answers!!
