Why FAAS is under assurance while FAAS is not allowed to not provide assurance?

It’s the worst feeling when you KNOW people talking smack about you behind your back. trust me I’m fed up with them too, but the worst thing I would say about them behind their backs is this post 😐

Any experience of the legal hypotheticals asked by Amazon at the final round (corporate counsel)?

Does anyone have any insight into culture at Apple Content Legal (or in-house legal at Apple generally)?

No poach agreements (i.e., we agree not to solicit each other’s employees) in customer contracts are a no-no for antitrust reasons, right? A customer is pretty adamant that they want it in but I feel like this is black and white. Would love to know if any of you are seeing them in your customer contracts and whether you’re including “unless prohibited by law” type of language to CYA.

Any in-house recruiters that work with juniors or even someone who could just apply to in-house jobs for you? I’m too busy to look but really want to leave

My co-worker is so resentful and competitive because I was promoted over her last year which caused a demotion on her end. People in the company still go to her for things that should be for me but she rarely corrects them. Shes still involved in the company too in a way that allows her to know secrets that I should know about but never do. I technically am above her within the company but this is how things are. I just do my job and try to not let it bother me but it does. Any suggestions?

I have a difficult time caring about what the business/company is doing big picture or advancing within the company. Just give me the contracts/matters you want me handle. Anyone else? Is this necessarily a bad thing?…don’t want to be married to my job.

I'm getting promoted and will have (an) employee/s. I have never been a manager before except discreet projects. Can anyone recommend an online, book, etc to teach me how to be a good boss? Panicking!

Real estate solo attorneys — do you close all your deals through a title company? Are smaller clients OK with paying escrow agent fees?

Does anyone have information on TC for Senior Corporate Counsel at Microsoft?

Have you had to change your start date after accepting an offer and how did it go? I told them I need to give 30 day notice and so I set my start date (incorrectly) assuming the background check and drug screen would take a few days to clear. However, the drug screen is now taking over a week and a half (still not finished, maybe tomorrow). Apparently things are much slower due to staffing issues and labs are backed up. It’s cutting into my 30 day notice significantly. Thoughts?

Hello Everyone!

The mods are thinking of starting a weekly series where we breakdown the compensation / salary of an in-house counsel offer. It will include variables like location, YOE, alma mater tier, company sector, and company size.

Would this be of interest to the community?

PSA: didn’t think anyone needed to hear this, but apparently many do. When you’re interviewing for a job you actually want, and the interviewer asks if you have any questions for them at the end, have questions ready, and legitimate ones. It’s a really bad look when candidates say “no I don’t have any questions,” or they ask something incredibly stupid like “what cool swag do you get?”

Do in-house roles have conflicts checks?

Any one in compliance at an investment bank? What was interview process like? How long is interview process?

Any university associate general counsel here? State university? Wondering what wlb is like.

Has anyone lateraled from big law into an in-house role at one of your firm’s clients? I feel like this happens quite a lot and curious how that process went (did you reach out to them, they to you, etc)? I’m in my second year and staffed on a large client & starting to develop a relationship which I’d like to maintain. I’m thinking about hanging in here for another year or two but then starting to look to lateral. Would love to work for this company if a position is available at that time.

My Legal department reports to HR. We used to report to the CEO. What’s the knee-jerk reaction to directly reporting to HR?
