I’m a mid level in BigLaw. I’ve done some LE lit work and I love it but primarily I’ve done EBEC deal work and I hate it. I hate deals and I’ve always wanted to transition to a full time LE practice. Would it make sense to go to one of the Big4 or an AM200 and take the short term cut in pay to do what I enjoy and try to get back in BigLaw LE later (what little is left)?

Hi, just wondering how the staffing situation has been in strategy consulting in general? My sibling started a job in strategy in Silicon Valley 2 months ago after MBA. She has been on the bench for 2 months and was informed that there has been a shortage of jobs (within the job) and the amount of people on the bench is getting high. She has been under a lot of stress although she had many great networking calls with people. I wanted to help but can't identify what she can improve on.

Hello, I’m an associate (almost at the one year mark) at a midsize firm on the EPL team. I did about 2 years of employment law as a clerk during school and know that’s what I want to go into. I’ve asked for more EPL work but keep catching PI cases. I second-chaired an employment trial but don’t see any EPL work for the foreseeable future and wasn’t getting as much EPL exposure as I wanted before the trial. Any advice on a lateral move to a bigger firm with a broader range of EPL work?
