Beating a dead horse… but any chance of another Milbank salary scale revision this year? Deal flow is expected to be heavy (and already is at my firm). 🤡

There will likely be base increases this year.

Why do you think that?

Many juniors ended last year with sub-1,500 and are still slow. Magic 8 ball says no.

Maybe. But I know several are the same at other firms. Personally, I'm not complaining. It's nice getting paid market while only billing 1500. But I'm obviously not expecting a bump in base salary.

I give it maybe 60-70% chance. Feels like a year there could be a small increase. But wouldn’t be surprised at all if there isn’t.

Historically either late Jan or June, but with Milbank anything is possible since they are the ones setting market comp (anyone calling it Cravath or DPW scale is lying to themselves)

Reading comprehension my friend. Show me when Cravath or DPW was a first mover on salary raises since 2018…

Hi All, I have an urgent query regarding TCS BGC process. My issue is that I have worked in X, Y and Z companies.
In X company I worked for 26months but my pf account is there for last 13months, before that my salary was very low so sometimes I got salary in hand or in pay cheque. I do have salary account statement for most of the months except 3-4 months in between my tenure. Will I face any issue for this?

Please give your valuable suggestions.
