Let’s see - you’re going to be paid six figures in a field in which I’m guessing you have zero real world experience. More than fair. You’re way overpaid. Hope you’re worth it.
Wait working hard is all it takes?!?! I should get on that!
Yes, seems accurate for new associates starting in speciality groups in HCOL area with JD/LLM.
CPA vs JD seems to be unfair. Why do the firms pay jd’s more even though we do the same work?
You don’t.
Not fair to the rest of us
For the Big 4 in a HCOL, its fair. You need to hustle as the pressure will be on to deliver work product and be as technical as possible. A few years of experience in a technical group, and you can pivot to a law firm.
Yes
Signing bonus is kind of low but not sure which big4. My JD/LLM classmates got about $10k-$15k for M&A.
Thanks everyone for helping me make an informed decision.
That sounds pretty fair. I assume a HCOL area?
Yes HCOL
I’m a JD/LLM in indirect tax and make $130k salary (Deloitte). I’d say you’re getting paid quite well.
Wow which big 4?
Geeeeez
Experienced hire or new grad for class of 2021?
That’s fair.
That JD sauce
Is OP just bragging?
No- not bragging. This is honestly not a ton of money compared to a biglaw salary which would be more like 190 based in NYM.
Some people pass biglaw if they didnt get core tax offers (exec comp, employee benefits).
Tax associate? Overpaid but whatever.
You should consider that you will be working 60-80 per week. Fair?
