In the midst of it, but my BD coach has been huge for helping me transition from marketing to true BD.

Would appreciate this as well please

Yes. The coach-lawyer dynamic is important. Interview a few and make sure you really click with them. Higher likelihood they will successfully hold you accountable the more you click with the coach.

Hi Fishes,
Joined @ Nov, 2021 in Operations at CL 12.2
My total experience is 6yrs (8mon in Accenture)
My current CTC is very low, 4.77lpa. Got 10% for September cycle.
1) when is the annual appraisal cycle, when we will get the hike letter? Approx hike %
2) will we get additional hike for sub-level change from 12.2 -> 12.1?

I'm a third year plaintiff's employment law attorney and I'm looking to move to defense, preferably still in employment law. I received an offer from a midsize firm that primarily focuses on PI with little-to-no employment law practice, so I'll have a bit of a learning curve. Offer is $90k, billable hours of 2100. Is this reasonable? I'm dead-set on leaving my current job, and this would be a $20k pay increase - which makes me believe I'm leaning towards taking it for those reasons only.
