Decent relative to overall country? Yeah definitely. It will take a while to get to 100k as it’s back office. In some firms it’s an hourly position.

Define "decent amount of money"? Backoffice and operations roles pay well, but not compared to other positions in the FS industry. Depends on what you feel comfortable making.

I think that all depends on what you consider decent money.

Looking for some advice. Second year associate at firm of 25ish attorneys in the Midwest. Looking to make a move and have an attractive offer from a small firm of 6 attorneys. Better pay and work life balance, but I’m concerned for how a firm that small may impact my career options moving forwards and if other firms or in house options down the line maybe frown on such small firms.
