Are you willing to put the hours ? It might increase your earning potential exponentially, but remember. At what cost ?

I’d take that in a heartbeat

It’s a rare opportunity. Take it to boost your career trajectory forever! Congrats!!

You need to understand in depth the types of deals they are working on.

If you’re coming from Big 4, it could be a wildly different type of client

What’s a fair expectation for my first raise? Publicly traded co with ~2500 employees. I’ve been doing litigation with the company for almost 3 yrs and have only had a 2% cost of living raise so far. Graduated in 2014. Base comp is $127.5k in the Philly area. I see salaries all over the place in this site and it’s hard to tell whether mine is competitive.
