I started a new role a few weeks ago. I am also currently planning to go somewhere warm during Christmas. Should I assume that for the days between boxing day to new years we will be off, so that I can plan this trip

I suggest talking with your leadership about the wanting to take time off. Suggest the days you would like to take off and get their opinion.

like

You shouldn't assume anything, verify what the company holidays are, and you'll also want to verify if you even have any vacation days available yet. Many companies accrue vacation days, rather then allot them at the beginning of the year.

In short, talk to your manager.

like

Holiday office closures for the year should be listed in a policy somewhere. Ask around your office or poke around your internal sites, then ask your leadership about any extra days needed.

like

I would check with your company. Everyones company's holidays could be different so I would not assume those days are automatically off.

I recently gave my small firm notice that I am leaving and moving to another state. I mentioned that I am considering starting my own practice in the new area, and the managing partner suggested that I transition to an “of counsel” position at a 1099 hourly rate (remote) while I got started. I thought the rate was a bit low, but I’m not sure what to compare it to. Anybody have any experience with these arrangements? Any advice on how to structure? Or if it’s worth it? Any input is appreciated.
