I want a completely remote job at a non profit or government agency. I have no idea how to start looking. Have any of your jobs announced that they’re staying completely remote post covid?

Fed government attorney here, I don’t think we will stay completely remote but we’ll probably have a lot more telework flexibility (especially under a Democrat administration). Under the current administration, telework was heavily cut across the board (pre-COVID).

Agree with this. I don’t think any federal agencies are likely to go completely remote but flexible work will increase.

A lot of nonprofits are looking at more WFH options to save on office leasing costs. I work for one that will probably end up with some in office, some all at home and some hybrid, with the bulk hybrid because of the direct services we provide. Apply for the jobs you want and then ask at interviews about their plans for wfh. The ones that don’t own their buildings are going to be better bets for you, as are those where you do more impact litigation or other work that doesn’t require lots of individual client work where clients are in and out of the office a lot.

I have been at my company for a little less than 4 years now. I’ve had the third highest sales last year out of a team of 50 and consistently the highest outbound calls per week. They told me I can start WFH once I hit $1mil in profit, but then rescinded right before I hit the goal. They have also denied simpler request like time off, when I know they have approved this before for others. I feel super unappreciated, but the money is great. I’m not sure if I should look elsewhere and start over?

I quit. I was respectful.

If they actually cared, why didn't they say so sooner? I gave so much, and I was consumed by this organization. I invested in them, but my investment and dedication were not reciprocated, which is why I ever even entertained leaving. I don't know why it hurts, but it really, really does.

Fellow millennial lawyers: tell me, in general terms, 1 or 2 clients you acquired and how you acquired them. I feel like the suggested strategies for developing business are always the same: network, build your brand (hate this phrase), market yourself on LinkedIn, etc. Does any of this work? Seems to me to that most business development comes from long-standing contacts (e.g. your childhood best friend is now CEO and needs legal services), so I’m curious how other attorneys developed business.
