How would you go about asking for a counter offer? I've never done this before. Additionally, I know people say to NEVER take one... is that always true?

I really like the team I'm currently on, it would be 100% just for the money. My leadership likes and supports me, but no promo yet on the horizon.

Current: $110k
New: $150k

Thanks!

Would moving from a firm to an employee relations position mean that I never secure an in-house employment law position? Or would such a move better position me to go in-house one day? I am having difficulty transitioning from a labor & employment firm to an in-house role, and so I am exploring alternatives while keeping in mind my future career trajectory.

Transitioning from junior in house at a very small company where I only did small easy contract review to a large multinational corporation in a few weeks, and have those weeks off. Does anyone have any book recommendations I can read until then that actually offer good insight and helpful tips?!

I didn’t learn that much on the business side and I love reading, so seems like a good idea to relax while also preparing a bit.

For Google, can you basically only get in with a reference? Should you write up a cover letter with your application? Its optional and my understanding is that companies don’t have time to read it anyway. Currently an lower level counsel at FAANG.

Question for in-house funds attorneys: How do you track and implement LP side letter requests? What system do you have in place to make sure that they don't slip through the cracks and the right team takes ownership?

Doing a remote interview tomorrow for an in-house position that I really want. Invite says "[company] is a startup, so a full suit is not necessary! Business casual attire is recommended." Like I said, I really want this job, and the idea of not wearing a suit is just weird to me

Should I still wear the suit or would it be counter productive?

For any San Diego attorneys out there- roughly what TC could one expect in-house in SD for a commercial/contracts/tech attorney with 8 YOE? I’m currently in-house in the Bay Area and trying to get a sense of how compensation compares in San Diego.

Calling all employment lawyers…please share the following details: base comp, bonus, equity, YOE, private vs public company, industry.

Signing up for the Harvard Business Review. Yay or nay?

I am 7 years out in a transactional practice (real estate) and have an opportunity to move in house at a regionally respected company from a midsize firm. I have WFH flexibility at my current firm but bill about 1850-1900 per year. It would be about a 25% paycut. I have also been offered partnership starting in 2022 if I stay - not entirely clear what that long term structure looks like (would have to develop a partially independent book in next 3-5 years). Am I crazy if I leave?

Do in-house roles have conflicts checks?

Anyone have advice on transitioning from corporate real estate work at a big law firm to an in house role in entertainment? In the NY market and would appreciate if people had insights into salary and culture in roles of that type.

What in-house opportunities exist for Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) lawyers?

Real estate solo attorneys — do you close all your deals through a title company? Are smaller clients OK with paying escrow agent fees?

Anyone have insight into Plaid’s legal group? Interviewing for a product counsel role.

I interviewed with a big pharma company last week. They said 2 more rounds of interviews with offers in early to mid April so I assumed things were moving quick. Im coming from small firm, not in-house. If I haven’t heard from them by the end of the week is it safe to assume I didn’t make it to round 2? Or does in-house always move slowly?

Any in-house attorneys at a PE/VC fund that can provide insight into how carried interest works? It seems like a bit of a black box and specific to a given fund, but even a description of the low level mechanics (vesting, relative %, etc) would be super helpful!

My co-worker is so resentful and competitive because I was promoted over her last year which caused a demotion on her end. People in the company still go to her for things that should be for me but she rarely corrects them. Shes still involved in the company too in a way that allows her to know secrets that I should know about but never do. I technically am above her within the company but this is how things are. I just do my job and try to not let it bother me but it does. Any suggestions?

Have you had to change your start date after accepting an offer and how did it go? I told them I need to give 30 day notice and so I set my start date (incorrectly) assuming the background check and drug screen would take a few days to clear. However, the drug screen is now taking over a week and a half (still not finished, maybe tomorrow). Apparently things are much slower due to staffing issues and labs are backed up. It’s cutting into my 30 day notice significantly. Thoughts?
