Why are you moving for a lateral? Wait and little bit and look for an early promotion. Not worth the risk
If you are at a less prestigious firm now, you will likely need to work the full promotion timetable.
Chief
Depends on if you’re going to a different practice area and typical promotion timelines
Usually takes longer. Best time to switch is when you’ve met the minimum bar for the role. E.g. If a role is 2-4 years experience, expect to have a similar promotion timeline as the person that got it with 2 years vs. you at 4 years.
The challenge of course is passing that minimum bar at the 2 year mark vs the 4 year mark.
