I’m looking to hire a Marketing Manger for a growing tech consulting firm located in NY. Remote position, great team and tons of growth opportunity. Message me for details.

Assume for this question that a) you, like me, mainly litigate in federal court, and b) cost and CLE requirements are no impediment: Why not waive into every state bar where state bar membership is required for regular admission to federal court in that state?

I am employed by a company with great benefits and prospects but with recent changes nd culture and I'm not sure if its direction is inline with my future. They changed my role, not the pay There has been a lot of turn over to IQVIA with salary of acct managers at base of 90k and unlimited PTO; is that true? Anyone from IQVIA can comment on culture, work/life, and base pay for account/clent managers? research shows regional acct managers make base of 96k but I'm making 76k with MBA, 15 yrs exp.

What are the most industry-related conferences and networking events worth going to?

I will say this I love working with the students . I love getting to know them . I smile to myself when I go to work . I still feel this way after last week being asked my three different people about doing something where I told them that I was not going to do. following day I was then ambushed by admin (where I have never felt more like nothing. Following this encounter with people in charge I had an anxiety attack. This was terrible and I have no trust . TAs are mistreated. Similar story?

I don’t wanna work today 😭

I have a relative traveling from Russia, who can get me Chanel bag from Chanel boutique in Moscow. Due to currency fluctuation and sales tax difference I can get 19 for 4732 vs local 4800+sales tax, which would be like $300 savings. Not much, but I’m cheap. I don’t like Chanel that much, but it seems like a good investment. So from the investment perspective - would you buy 19, 19 maxi, boy bag, Gabrielle or WoC? And would you buy it in neutral color and material or buy the latest fashion?

Has anyone dealt with a FIRPTA withholding on a sale? It looks like the seller of a condo I’m interested now is an international student so it would apply. Are there any specific steps to take with this kind of transaction? Is it as simple as withholding 15% of the Sales price from the seller to remit to the IRS or is there more to it?

My onboarding date changed from 20th to 24th? Is this happened to anyone?Infosys

What is your definition of “underwater”? As in number of hours

2017 grad so technically a 4th year. Lateraled to a CRE boutique in NYC that’s a major player. Learned quickly that my experience/knowledge/organization is not up to par (was a COG in the machine at prior firm). Just had EOY review and, though positive sounding, they’re dropping me to a 3rd year to ensure I’m not billing as a 4th year and able to do the work to learn/get up to par. I feel pretty okay about it (market salary deduction notwithstanding), but want to make sure I’m not being naive.

Thoughts on working with a recruiter vs reaching out to people you know at firms to submit your resume?

Need some feedback, I am lateraling into an associate role at a top 25 law firm after several years at government and corporate jobs & have concerns about the background check.

I haven’t made much money in the past few years and have accrued significant debt from credit cards & personal loans, some of which was to help out family during COVID. My credit utilization is at 90% & I’ve been making payments on time. Credit score is at 580 after being at 780 before law school. Will this ding me?

Whats's Latham's WFH policy?

My firm just switched to unlimited vacation days. People whose firms already have this policy, how's this policy actually work in reality? Do you take less days than you used to?

Can anyone recommend some small or mid-sized law firms in NYC that are reputable and could make for a good lateral opportunity for a second-year M&A associate who enjoys working at a law firm but wants to get away from constant 70-100 hour weeks? I’m happy to work hard, but staffing shortages at my Big Law firm have run me into the ground and I’m ready for a change.

Anyone on here practice Labor & Employment law? What’s the industry outlook? And are firms/salaries as bimodal as they seem? I feel like there are four to five heavy hitters and a ton of other firms that claim to do the work. Where should I look if I wanted to lateral? 2 YOE at a V50.

My firm reimburses for two bar association memberships, but are any actually worth joining? I don't really need CLEs but would be down for good networking / social opportunities (if they exist)

I’m a 2nd yr. in M&A (if relevant: I’m billing on average 176 hrs, lowest month was 144, highest was 281, not getting paid market about 20-30k below). I’m considering a lateral move to Latham. Would love insight on the M&A group and the NY office as a whole, specifically culture but any insight or advice is appreciated.

Does anyone have experience with being a JD/MBA student and having a firm hire you on as a 2nd year for salary purposes? Or is this just a rumor?

Do any firms have an “ESG” group? Is it a real group with dedicated staff or just a website with content pulled together from other practice areas?

Hi all, wanted to start a New York-specific big late bowl. Figured this is better for us since the NY market is very different from other Big Law markets in the US.

Have any associates actually discovered something during diligence that tanked the deal?

Anyone have recommendations for firms with good general corporate practices or that encourage associates to work across different corporate practice areas? I’m a second year M&A associate looking to broaden my skill set in my next role.
