Best big and mid size firms in Atlanta for real estate? When considering billable hours, comp, culture, etc. I’d appreciate hearing from anyone that generally likes their firm or has any recommendations on firms to stay away from.

I'm new to EY and consulting in general. Does anyone know what is the average salary hike for promotion from Senior to Manager and for Seniors in non-promotion year?

My remit quadrupled+ in a recent re-org with no increase in pay/promotion, my new director is new to the company and was zero help, and I was passed over for recent promotion during the comp cycle. The new director essentially began shutting me down any time I ask for clarity in my career progression. Now they have taken credit for the project I’ve been building over the past year+ without giving me props whatsoever to higher ups. What is the best plan of action here?

Hi Fishes,
I'm currently working for a fintech firm as SQL Developer which has got me into a toxic working culture(zero support from colleges) with no learnings so far.

Although, I'm from a Commerce domain..I wanted to move into Data Analytics so I learned SQL and Tableau on my own to get myself better Data Analytic job opportunities to build my career in.

However, without any live projects and hands on experience on the tool, I could only learn a few things about these two mentioned tools. So

Managing Partner: I heard it’s your birthday today.

Me, a dumb little Associate: it is.

MP: Well, Happy Birthday.

Me, a dumb little Associate: Thanks, you too.

MP:……awkwardly looks at me with confusion….

Me:…realizing what I just said..it’s not his Bday…slowly wishing I could just die rather than deal with the awkwardness.

Someone point me to the nearest bridge, I am so awkward.

What’s a legit background check service provider to use? Please and thanks in advance

Im totally stuck at work; my boss has stopped me from growing (not allowing me to try new things like sit in on mediation, attend depos or hearings or write different pleadings) and is constantly criticizing me. I want to make myself as attractive to other firms as possible but I feel limited in my skill set since I’m limited at work. What other ways can I gain skills at work? Write articles? Join a bar association?
Im a 2nd year btw

The recent most billable hours post, inspired me. What is your longest billable day? Mine was 56 hours straight with no break—and the partner was more than a jerk when I was saying no more at the 30 hour point. That was two 24 hour billable days back to back on my time sheet and on the bill, a 360 hour month, and 650 aggregated for two months. And it is one reason (of so many reasons) why this job can suck so much! At least I got a good bonus...

Filed with HSR today, the confirmation came at exactly 5:00.? We let the PNO know by email immediately afterwards, asking for them to treat it as having been filed today. Has anyone had a similar situation, and if so, was the waiting period moved to the next business day?

Looking for some advice. Not a regulatory lawyer by training. Partner asked me to research an issue and determine (on a budget and on a time crunch) whether a particular regulation applied to our client’s niche industry. I, on that budget and time crunch, determined it did not. Couple of weeks go by, client is still working on the issue without me, and decide to put me in touch with opposing counsel who point out additional authorities and cites and convinces me it applies.
