Almost all IHC dept are lean, so if it’s being specifically called out that means it’s gonna be real bad mmkay. Working most nights and some weekends.
No thanks.

They all give the same vibe, but not all have the same red flags, e.g., “we’re like family” or “work hard play hard”
I’ve only worked in house for private companies with relatively small in house teams (at times I was the only in house lawyer). It can be a triage exercise at times but I’ve found it far more interesting and ultimately fulfilling than being part of a large department, but that’s very much a personal preference. Right now I’m in a regional role (I’ve been global CLO and regional GC of different companies) for a private company with 12 lawyers worldwide but I’m the only one in my region.
Very much agree. I intend to stay on the private side in lean departments. Super interesting work and broad scope. A lot of triaging but it’s never boring and I love getting to know the entire company.
