The ability to make signature pages and send dial-ins is worth at least $500k signing bonus.

Probably $0. You may be able to negotiate them covering your year end bonus

I don’t see a signing bonus being likely. Despite the market, rx is still pretty slow even with cases in the pipeline. There are a lot of associates at the top rx firms who won’t be hitting their hours this year.

possibly something small, but more likely just a full year end bonus and an improvement in your practice for whatever you’re looking to find

Signing bonuses exist to incentivize you to sign there instead of elsewhere. It implies competition and demand for associates. That’s not where we at rn

A4- I know, but I feel like after everything that happened to the profession following the 08 recession, I was just hoping we could have had our time in the sun just a little longer.

None unless you’re in investment management or funds

Zero. If you have a competing offer you may be able to get something, otherwise try for your full year end to make you whole.

My firm has a collections budget (80% of your billable rate x 1850 hours) and an hourly budget that must be met in order to be eligible for a bonus. The firm cares very little about originations and will reward someone for making their collections over someone who brings in new work. I missed my collection budget due to some odd timing with a client, but originated more than all my peers so no bonus for me. I’ve been at this same mid level firm for 9 years and it’s all I know. Is this normal??

Hey guys,
I’m working at Management Solutions in my Rome since I have the desire to work abroad I sent my CV around the Europe.

The position is in the accounting sector of Deloitte DBS. They told me that the base salary (I’m an entry level) is 18k per year. In Rome I’m actually earning 28k+1k bonus.
Anyone knows why there’s such a great gap in salary? Tomorrow I’ll have the interview so any comments could be helpful. Thx
