Asking for a friend: for those at GT, how is work life for tax seniors? What are hours for non- and busy season? How’s compensation — raises/bonuses? How many days PTO?

I think it depends on what level tax senior you are. Aka what year. I think it also depends on what clients you are on and what level of responsibilities you are getting. As a senior one it’s pretty chill. Have not had to go over 50 hours too often. But if you are a senior 3 going for manager and you are acting managers and you have hellish clients, then the hours could be gross

My hours are like 30-50 a week with some fluctuations above 50 if client deadlines are immediate. As for compensation they are solid considering we as a whole work less hours then some other firms. And pto we have FTO aka if you get your charge hours up and do good work. Take as much time as you want.

We are a firm of 5 transactional attorneys and the bonus structure is very unclear. The usual “based on personal performance and firm profitability” language. I wonder how this is calculated in general. What is the percentage bracket of the bonus? Assume it is a high performance 9+ year attorney and the firm is profitable (even with COVID). The based salary is low $120k. Firm is in Tx. I’d love to hear your comments.
