Interested to know since this is rarely done, but what is your salary/state/position (__ year associate, etc.)/practice area? I see salaries posted far too often without any context. Surely everyone on here isn’t biglaw in NYC, Miami, LA, etc. Where are all the normal folks at?

3rd year. NYC Gov Law. $230k plus bonus (we’ll see if there are any this year 🙃)

I worked in city gov for almost a decade.
ADA: 55-65k (1-4yrs out of school)
Legislative body: 85k (5 years out of school, non attorney role)
Mayor’s office: 117k (6 yrs out of school, non attorney role)

Consider non attorney roles in government that still keep you in legal/Policy

5th year, remote in house counsel for software company, personally located in Denver area. 150k base + 15% annual bonus and significant equity. Super flexible hours (generally work from about 8:30 - 4 with freedom to go to appointments, etc during the day and “unlimited PTO) plus work from home makes it a pretty good gig.

I feel super uncomfortable now because do I essentially lie to my boss because I’m not supposed to talk about it.

I genuinely think I’m on the brink of quitting. Nope, I have no exit plan, no job searches started, not even an updated resume. But I do have three 4:00 AM-ers in the last 8 days, partners telling me to *increase* my hours, and anxiety that’s so high I can barely eat or sleep. My body is physically breaking down from a year of high stress and I’ve been on the brink of a panic attack for the last four days. I don’t want to do anything stupid, but I don’t know how much longer I can last. Thoughts?
