I practice traditional labor as a biglaw senior associate. I don't often hear of traditional labor jobs at other firms. Am I stuck where I am, or are firms looking for people with my background?

Yes, the Big 4 are always looking for traditional labor attorneys because they are rare. Mid-size L & E firms as well. Further, there are plenty of public sector employment firms that have traditional labor needs for which your skills would translate.

For any of you real estate investors, what tools or sources did you learn from when getting started. Can’t find a mentor currently so want to find some highly recommended books or videos. If focused on the tri-state area (NY, NJ, Long Island mainly) that would be even better. My hope is to buy and rent out a apartment while also owning a house and house hacking that by renting part of it out. Trying to understand all the steps, traps, and how to find if it’s a good investment.

That base salary is lower than my previous base by a significant amount by 32.7%

Transactional associate. Lateraled 6 months ago and one of the biggest pain points has been my new firm’s inclination to “hop on a call”, which of course requires every single stakeholder to join. The end result being every call has 25 people on it and nothing actually gets done because no one wants to ask a question that could come off as silly. It’s destroying my ability to get anything done during the day. It’s a complete performance and it drives me nuts.
