Project availability will depend on market and area. For D&A where I am we barely had bench in 2020 and definitely don't have anyone sitting now.

Let me share a recent post from the Slalom bowl:

Slalom: these are the projects you’ll be doing

Me: ok. These are individual contributor roles.

Slalom: Yup. Important for us to not have bench time. You need to do the roles we staff you.

Slalom: Your roles don’t demonstrate force multipliers. You haven’t led teams.

Me: I did the roles you told me to do.

Slalom: Since you didn’t demonstrate more leadership on your projects we can’t place you higher in the org.

Me: I...did the roles you sent me...I didn’t have a choice.

Slalom: Here’s your next role. It’s a individual contributor project.

Me: Wait...you just said...

Slalom: Love your future! Smile!

Good evening all,
With my partner we are considering making a move to the countryside of Switzerland, with a gorgeous RE project offering incredible views on immaculate mountains and lake. However, it is far away, and will require 1h+ train/car commute vs. 10 min biking right now. We are scared it will bite us back at some point, although COVID helped w/ remote working being a new norm. The project will be done 2024, so I hope to have a more relax job by then. Any similar experience to share?

How many matters is typical for one associate to handle (BL lit)? I know it is group-specific, but just trying to get a general idea. I’m a 2nd year and I am the only associate staffed on about 30 cases-meaning I keep track of all deadlines, do all day to day assignments, keep on top of following up with client/OC, and all research/drafting. Partners handle deps/court but that is about it. Is this a normal case load to be responsible for as a jr? I being dramatic by thinking this is too much?

Hey folks. Question for the majority of us still under the big 3 holding co’s...are raises a thing anymore?

I also recognize being somewhere 5 years is rare these days. The honeymoon period at any agency seems to be 2.5—3yrs before bolting. Not complaining, just asking. Have y’all been getting raises/bumps in any kind of regular cycle? Thx.
