I’m a fourth year in Big Law. I’ve been billing 2000+ hours annually since I started with the firm (first as a student and now as an associate). Over the last two years, my husband and I have been through infertility/IVF hell. A few partners I am very close to know that I am going through IVF. Last week I found out I am pregnant for the first time through IVF. I will be 5 weeks on Tuesday and already feeling fatigue and nausea. Should I tell the partners I am close to? (More in comments)

Hello fellow fish. What is the amount you thought you’d be earning at your current age when you first began your career and had expectations delivered?

My professional life at the moment is far from ideal. I’ve been on quarantine (long story, but a good one) for the last seven years. Royalties from my books don’t pay the bills. My entrepreneurial pursuits remain hampered. For the interim, I’ve been looking for a remote opportunity where I can leverage my skills in marketing, sales, social media, and elsewhere for a decent sum. I have a social media presence which, in recent years, reached millions. There has to be something exciting I can do.

I’m 3+ years to audit partner and weighing options and exhausted by omnipresent inspection risk and how this impacts day to day (and presume it will continue to get worse). Considering the advisory role 1) job security, 2) exit ops, 3) partnership ops. Anyone recently make a similar jump and could share?
