Absolutely! Which sucks because I love the firm. But you can only allow yourself to be on sale for so long. Eventually you have to pay full price. Deloitte isn’t always willing to do that. And if you are an experienced hire in GPS you almost always have to leave to get better pay. Fortunately Deloitte sets you up to be able to do almost anything so that transition isn’t difficult.

In terms of a place to live, where in Manhattan can I find a place that's similar to River North in Chicago?

My issue is, I have so much firm's work that I have hard time to work on my cases/clients. It feels like my cases are supposed to be done after hours (like after 6 pm). My work hours are crazy. I feel this is unfair and since my firm's taking 70% of my sales. Should I ask for a raise?
