With everything becoming cashless, fewer chances of beards getting caught in the cash sorting machines.

So I say go for it

Yes, 2/3 of the guys on my team have facial hair. When I started in 2009 zero people did.

If it’s a real beard and maintained you are totally fine. If it’s not a maintained regularly and looks messy I would shave or clean it up.

It’s a real beard, those are fine. I’d just trim it and make it look kempt

I have a beard, people seem to like it

I get your point, but I think it could only hurt you. Try growing it out once you start?

I grew a beard during covid and no one has said anything, still got promoted

In 2009 when I started no one had beards but they are fine now. I’ve started wearing jeans too.

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 $400k+ in-house/how difficult is it to transition back to a firm? Thanks!

I'm in the final round of interviews for two internal positions - both vertical. One has FTE's (my first such experience) and the other a much broader scope vs my current role

I had interviewed externally for a role on par w the internal roles, at a smaller and less established company. They confirmed +20% was in their range

How do I push back on my company if they offer less than that, if I do want one of those roles? Without a pay scale, what is the best way to approach?
