Good book recommendations on the basics behind M&A deals and the DD process? Asking for a friend who is looking to start a search fund and has operational experience but no finance.

I have an interview with a GC tomorrow. I’ve already interviewed with the person I’d report to. What types of questions should I ask them? Should I recycle the questions I used in my previous interview? The last interview went over and I felt I had a good sense of the role and had all of my questions answered..

Has anyone ever work at Morgan Stanley New York as in-house?

I have to fly cross country in a few weeks. First time flying for this job (been here a year). I’m allowed to fly business if I want (im the GC). Company isn’t killing it financially right now.

Thoughts on the use of productive tracking software to track and quantify the work of in house counsel?
There has been a lot of coverage of these lately and they seem somewhat incapable with legal work, just wondering how others feel about the prospect of their employers implementing something like this.

Does anyone in-house care about cover letters? I had an interview last week where the interviewer (a tech person and nonlawyer) said they found it odd that I submitted a cover letter. Aren’t they basically required? Or is this just a law firm thing?

Well-traveled people: what seem like the best major market cities to live in with access to great in-house jobs (FAANG, adjacent companies, etc.). Some markets seem like really fun places to live but seem insanely expensive (San Fran, DC). Others seem like great comp to cost of living ratios but you seem like you’d basically be in a boring suburb (Raleigh, etc.) or have major drawbacks (arctic weather in Chicago, etc.). Maybe I’m totally off base though. Would love to hear everyone’s thoughts.

Had two initial interviews for a litigation counsel job with two large companies in the last few weeks, got rejected by both companies…. I’m well qualified for one job (interviewed with the litigation group), a little under qualified for the other (interviewed with the HR). I have 5 YOE. Any suggestions for future job search/interview?

Did your company increase salaries in light of inflation/economic turmoil? I’m grateful to have a job obviously but feel comp is not keeping up with current climate at all.

Anyone have any professional development/leadership books they’d recommend? Doesn’t have to be lawyer or in-house related specifically, just something you found helpful. I just finished Deep Work and found some aspects helpful, but others not applicable to in-house counsel life.

I have 5 YOE in big law as an environmental attorney. I’m hoping to make a move in-house soon, but I don’t see in-house environmental positions come up very often.

For companies with large in-house legal teams, do the L&E in-house positions generally get paid the same as the corporate/transactional positions, or do L&E in-house lawyers generally make less?

Random question-
My company works with influencers who are independent contractors. However they are not managed by anyone on HR and never have been. They would like to part ways and would like me to send the termination email to the independent contractor. Aside from whether this is appropriate, are there any ethical issues Im missing?

Sorry for cross-post but is in-house a feasible exit option for attorneys with the federal government? Let me preface this by saying that this is super premature as I just got the tentative offer from the government for a position focusing on labor and employment litigation before the EEOC, but I wanted to plan ahead and see what my options were down the road if I'm looking for a bigger paycheck. I'm currently 13 YOE in private practice at mostly small/mid size firms.
