The division I work at seems to have some weird shady Ora’s about it, unexplained spending, intentional lack of raise’s, and pay scales that are all over the map. Do I go above my supervisor to bring this to attention or do I just Run! Problem is I like my coworkers enough to not want to see them taking it in the dirty end if they do a corporate review?

I have an interview for an in house position (only attorney) at a small non-profit focused on conservation easements. I am a transactional associate at a mid sized law firm. The prospect of freedom from the billable hour and contributing to meaningful work are the draws. The cons are that while the salary at the non-profit would only be slightly less than what I am making now, pay increases and opportunities for advancement will be much less than where I am now. Thoughts on making the shift?

Does anyone have any thoughts or experience with Clyde and Co’s California offices?

The split is around 50% transactional and 50% lit.

Whenever I'm assigned work from this associate I think I understand what he's asking for but it turns out I don't give him what he wants. It only happens with this one associate. Tips?

It happened again today. I was walking from my car into a building and remembered I had forgotten to lock my car.

Can anyone relate to this feeling?
