I’ve heard from a close friend they work you pretty hard for well below market pay and it’s very hard to lateral to a firm that pays more. That may be different for you if you have a stellar academic background.

Only worked at JL as a summer associate and not in NJ. 15-lawyer office. Everyone is nice. I helped with litigation, responding to NLRB, union election, and post-arbitration briefs after attending it.

Is Operations paid the least at your respective firms? I was hired to a Client Service Delivery role with a heavy focus on project management. I regularly interface with leadership internally and at the client. But, I am aligned to the “Operations” capability and make the least of my teammates who perform seemingly identical work but are aligned to “Strategy and Consulting.” I worry I’m on a career path to being paid the least wherever I go, because Operations is in my title and background.

Hello everyone!
I recently found out that I was being paid less than everyone in the team (more than 25% gap to more expe teammates, around 15% less than new hires)
We all had the same responsibilities, I consider I even had a heavier workload (talking in past tense since I very recently made an internal move).
Things to consider:
On a work visa
Non-white
Non-male
What would you recommend doing?
Keeping it to myself?
Speaking up? How? With who?

-TIA
