I'm in a group where I get great reviews each year and earn praise from clients, but partners don't invest much in me or let me work on the "good" deals (I always get the scraps). I'm also the only black attorney in my group, which may or may not be relevant. I doubt I have a chance of making equity partner, though I also don't want to. If you were me, would you go to a competitor just to stick it to people here? Or mail it in, shoot for a NEP/counsel-type gig, collect paychecks, and coast?

Why do so many analysts move forward with PE recruiting processes so early on into their career? I really want to stay in IB for a solid couple years and master what I'm doing now before I move on.

Has anyone ever tried negotiating a pro-rated bonus prior to leaving for a federal clerkship (i.e., where you leave a month or two before the end of the billable year)? I’m figuring it’s a no-go and, if anything, the firm would prefer to negotiate that into the package upon return from the clerkship (along with any clerkship bonus, etc), but wondering if it would be worth bringing up before I leave. Thanks in advance!

Currently working at AM100 firm as a 7th yr litigation associate. The goal is to go in-house but haven't had a lot of luck getting past the first or second round of interviews. I have an offer for an in-house contract position (12-18 months) working on a project that's heavily regulatory and would require a lot of work drafting policies and procedures. Any thoughts on whether a contract position might be worth taking to get the experience I need for a real in-house job?

My coworker keeps leering at me when he thinks I'm not looking. How long do I wait before I tell HR?

Partners, senior associates - why do you phrase things as “what about this? Why havent we done this?” Isnt it obviously bc nobody thought about it? Why not just direct and guide your team to do something as opposed to ask that awkward question and make the team scramble to pretend like it’s in process

If I am no longer interested in a job after a long background check and bad communication from the company (the employment offer is contingent on the completion of this check), can I withdraw my name from consideration or is too late once I sign the offer letter? Thanks.

Developers are getting paid at scale of 17-25 LPA at experience of 5-6 years. And MBA with (3+2+2) YOE (Pre-MBA-Post) is earning 15-18. Why is the math skewed?

Received an offer as a first year analyst lateral hire. The company is a MM shop Baird/WB/HW. It’s 5-15k over what I expected to receive. I know it may sound greedy but I don’t see a sign-on bonus, I was under the impression that these were common practice. Should I bring it up? If so how should I go about it?

The week of my wedding, my husband (PL SQL Developer 4 yoe) was laid off. That was a couple of weeks ago. Luckily I'm still bringing money in as a software engineer, but I'm looking for advice on how to support a partner who has been laid off. Ultimately I think we will be ok, but I know he's hurting / stressed / and could use a supportive partner.

What started out as picking up a second part time job, has become a side gig. Well this was not planned in the slightest.

Not 100% sure if it has to do with race of if my supervising partner has trust issues, but I am tired of being told to draft correspondence and having the whole document changed by my supervising partner. I know I’m an excellent writer and I have others read the documents and they confirm that it’s well written but when I submit it my boss—she strips my voice. I don’t know at this point why put in any effort

Advice regarding following up multiple times with lead partner about a position in his practice group? I have been in contact with the firms recruiting director as well as 4 of the firms partners. The lead partner and I were supposed to connect a few weeks back but we were never able to. My issue is that I've already essentially followed up twice. Am I overthinking it now that a few weeks have passed or
should I contact recruiting or another partner to help facilitate things?

Is it normal during a lateral interview process to be informed of an interview the day before?

So so tired of always being the odd one out. My firm isn't even bad or anything I'm literally just exhausted from constant code-switching and never seeing a face like mine in the office unless they're a client. Seriously considering looking for somewhere with leadership that is significantly more diverse. I don't have any proof but I feel like my success will be firmly capped here and I'll never have a shot at making partner.

Any news on vedder price? I’ve heard they didn’t fire anyone during COVID but have also heard it’s a sweatshop. Any insight to their litigation team would be helpful, thanks!

Ketanji did not come to play! Came out of the gate ready to fight and turn these racist arguments on their heads. The way she was dropping 14th Amendment bombs on that man made me so happy. And this is only her first day. I just hope they protect her well.

Does anyone stress about student loans? I have $176k in loans and as January gets closer, the panic attacks have gotten worser. I am in-house at a Real Estate company (making $90k), which is terrible bc they are going under due to the market.

I think the take that "people only started to cancel Kanye when he was anti-semitic" is ridiculous. The only reason he's actually losing deals and contracts now is MONEY. After he made the anti-semitic comments Adidas stock dropped 17% lmao. People complained and stopped supporting him on a small scale before he made those comments, but I think we (I'm Black) should have put our money where our mouths were instead and not given him a pass for so long.

Anyone at a mid size firm in DC I can talk to. I work at one already and would like to speak to other about their experiences.
