Crosby AI is advertising a "Commercial Counsel" role, but it seems to be rote contract review using their AI tool for dozens of clients as a time, operating more like a law firm than in house. This seems a bit dead end if all you're doing is one task (reviewing contracts). Is my intuition correct that I should stay away? The pay appears to be decent though.

That doesn’t sound like a typical in-house job. I would personally stay away.

You’re right, it isn’t an in house counsel role and the AI tool is used internally by their transactional attorneys. Most of their clients seem to be in finance.

That role has been reposted at least 3 times by now on LinkedIn.

It’s a sign that they aren’t seriously hiring.

Yes i dont think these are typical in house roles.

they dont advertise anything else? like advising on other adjacent areas of law

In the screener they said it was just contract review and nothing else

When I moved in-house a year ago as a BigLaw mid-level, I took a 45% pay cut, far more than I was comfortable with (although I was fine with a 20-30% cut). I took the job because it was a great role and I was focused on making the jump in house and developing the skills I wanted, which required me moving away from my firm practice area. Now that my year-end review is coming up, how do I ask my company for a significant pay raise (not just a 2-5% inflation-matching raise)?
