I’m thinking about leaving Big Law and NYC altogether and heading back to my hometown in the Midwest. Has anyone done this and targeted regional firms? I’m so burnt out on all fronts, but it’s such an exciting time to be in NYC!

I’m getting Hallmark movie visions of you, the big city lawyer, moving back to your small town in the Midwest at Christmas time and finding true love. So wishing you all the best lol

As someone who can’t leave NYC, I wish I had this option lol. I’n from here and I genuinely don’t believe this time is exciting at all. But it will always be here, so we would be happy to welcome you back!

Hey fishes, curious which San Diego companies you think give the best work-life balance. Can be public, private, start-up, etc. BONUS: If you work for one, do you like it there?

Hey guys, so I have competing offers. One at Bank of America for 124, and one at Allspring for 110.

Does anybody work at Allspring? They did not provide any information regarding benefits, 401k match, or any annual bonus structure. I was told, verbally, that the Bank of America bonus is something like 15 to 20%, but nothing in writing.

Just wondering if anyone has any knowledge about compensation structure at Allspring, or any opinions on the culture there. I would be in Charlotte.
