How does your AmLaw 100 or 200 firm handle pumping? Are you allowed to pump in your office if you want to?

We have a nursing room on each floor. Cannot pump in office because we have clear walls.

This picture is a few years old. I have a full chest, and it was the beginning stages of "wearable pumps" and none fit my cup size. I pumped out in the open. I wore a black oversized kimono when I was actively pumping, and got dressed wearing a cami under my work blouse and wore a pumping bra (dairy fairy!) the whole day. I'm not saying you *have to* do it this way, but firms are not required to make your workspace suitable for pumping (yes they do have to provide a space, but that cam be annoying to manage). I pumped for 3 kids while working big law and did it this way for all 3. For me, it worked.

As you can see, I had to actively make myself visible for anything "indecent" to be seen. And yes, over the years there was an occasional groan from people who noticed, but I tried to be both a good mom and good employee and for me this was a happy medium.

Salary check. I am currently an in house attorney. 12 YOE. Large company with great coworkers doing regulatory work for the insurance industry. Good work life balance. I live in a high COL city. Out of curiosity and to test the market, I interviewed at a FAANG. Did not get the job, but found out TC was 350k, significantly higher than my TC 230k. I thought I was compensated fairly, but would love to see your thoughts.
