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.

I had a big post-bar trip planned traveling and originally planned to comeback Sept. 15th. My lawfirm told me that the start date was Sept. 19th in may to plan trips. We just got an email last week there was a mistake and the firm said they made a mistake and the start date is now the 12th. I asked for flexibility and I got a response that there is none. I will be out a few hundred dollars almost 1K and a big dent in the trip now. Should I keep pushing or should I just count my losses and fold.
