Does anyone do First Party Property work? Considering a position at firm that does PI and FPP, but I don’t know much about what FPP entails. Is it volume or do the cases settle for decent amounts? What is your comp/structure?

FFP is like a lot of practices the bottom feeder cases are terrible but there are a lot of very lucrative FFP cases with bad faith exposure that can be huge money makers. If you are doing low level slip and fall PI work, similar quality FFP work is also going to suck.

like

FPP in my state’s biggest ID firm so other side of the aisle. It’s very firm dependent. Lots of places pay below market for ID work. My case load is close to 60 and most days I’m reactionary instead of pro-active. If you can do sinkholes fees and costs can get pretty large. Cases drag for YEARS (4-10 year old claims are the norm).

If it's homeowners insurance cases then that's a total drag. And find out if the firm does work for citizens. If it does run and never look back

Started a new job a year ago, high performer. My manager suggested a promotion to Product Manager since that‘s the work I’m doing, but that would be a 50% raise. Higher ups decided instead to make a “new role” (not PM), that has no analog in the company and is hard to price via Glassdoor, etc. I feel like this is to limit my promotion salary to something like 10% from where it currently is. Is there anything I can do? FWIW: I have a PhD from top 5 program and am working in that field. Thanks!
