Texas biglaw: let’s name & shame firms who expect us to go back to the office five days a week with no hybrid model going forward.

Personally, I will continue to WFH twice a week despite my firm “strongly encouraging everyone to be in the office once vaccinated.” Wtf are they going to do? I’m an adult and if I’m billing my hours, it shouldn’t matter.

So let’s name, shame, & make it clear to these firms and their boomer management that we will not go back to the pre-Covid miserable grind.

Do mid-sized firms offer better work-life balance than biglaw firms (and if so, could you share the names of any in NYC)? Would be willing to take any cuts in salary for better hours/lifestyle.

Wondering about potential exit/in-house opportunities for different practice groups. I’m currently in big law and choosing between general corporate deal work (M&A/PE) and tech transactions. Do either of these give better in-house (or other) opportunities later on?

To all the star junior and mid-level associates,
How did you become a go-to associate?

Took the afternoon off. Totally have stuff I could be working on but I’m too burnt out to care. Cooked a nice dinner for my husband and me (cooking is relaxing for me),and enjoyed a bottle of wine together… and just… talked. Hope you all can find moments like this too while doing this job.

Have any of you ever taken a leave for mental health or family reasons. If so, what was your experience like? (Telling people, logistics, pay, etc.)

Anyone here who considered/worked in consulting (MBB/T2) before law school? What was the reason you decided to commit to the law route given fairly similar pay yet arguably better WLB, exit ops, and more stimulating work?

How do people give their notice?

Got an offer I'm planning to take. I primarily work with 1 partner and two counsel. Should I send an email individually to each with my notice? Ask if they have time for call and tell them on the phone, with a follow up email for the record?

Interested to hear what others' experiences &/or preferences are? I'm sure they'll be panicking given we're already understaffed.

Do Big Law firms try to talk or negotiate associates out of other offers? Or do they just let you go without much discussion? I knocked some past reviews out of the park and am feeling pretty guarded starting a new job search.

There is a good case for higher year end bonuses this year. All in comp is down in 2022 taking into account special bonuses last year. So unless PPP takes a real hit, I’d like to see a modest bonus increase. Doubt PPP is going to be down by that much (in many cases not at all) for the top 30 firms. And with firms trimming fat, that should mean higher bonuses for those that are left. Idk about the rest of you, but my firm feels as busy as ever (M&A).

Will a typo in a thank you email after an interview mean you will pass on the candidate?

How is V&E Houston?

The feedback I keep getting is that I need to speak up more in meetings (im in a collaborative practice group and it’s awful). But when I do, I usually get shot down and feel like I’ve just shown everyone how dumb I am. How do you speak up when you have nothing to contribute?

How frowned down upon is it to use the same cases cited to support an argument in a memo written by another firm if your argument for your case is very similar?
