I’m in corporate law at a big law firm. Once I’ve obtained more financial flexibility, I would like to do work that is more litigation in nature. I.e. DAs office/working for the DOJ or something along those lines. Is this possible or would it be too difficult given that I’m not a litigator? I still do tons of litigation pro bono work and try to keep up with litigation in general. Any general advice?

I’ve got about 20 years cross channel experience in marketing, split between big brands and startups, and I’m considering pivoting into a data science/data analyst role. I know it will initially be a step back in comp but is it at all realistic for a person with certificate level experience in data analysis but a decent marketing management background to expect $150-200k comp or is that mostly for degreed candidates (or not realistic at all)? Any guidance here is greatly appreciated.

I joined fishbowl a month ago and while I’ve seen a couple contentious debates but I must say I’m pleasantly surprised at how respectfully ppl comment on this app even when disagreeing.

I wonder what makes this app diff frm others?
