I am so beyond ready to leave my current job, but can’t yet, since bonuses are paid out in January. 😬

In the meantime, I’ve applied to a lot of similar roles (slightly higher) but have not heard - good or bad - from any. Is it common for companies to slow down hiring in December because of Q4 rush, people on holiday, etc.?

At least where I have worked, a lot of people are OOO during this time of year so hiring slows pretty drastically. It will pick back up in January or February!

Not uncommon at the banks I've worked for to slow hiring or even pull reqs and institute hiring freezes in Q4 (especially towards the very end). Just stay on it.

I agree Dec is a slow month with people taking vacations, you may see some pick up in the new year

Not to mention everyone in HR that needs to sign off on anything is preoccupied with open enrollment.

Want to get a sense check. Typical English firm salaries in London are about 70% Cravath (unless you're at one of the US firms that benchmarks to Cravath scale offices). 2PQE is around 165k USD + 30k bonus assuming 1800 billables. So comparing at a firm where you roughly bill 1900-2000 a year, you lose out, but if you bill 2200+, that's comparable?

Thinking aloud here - if you can find that 2000-billing firm, no sense staying in that payscale unless you have a shot at equity?
