Is it normal/okay to request the management to provide printing expenses (basically ink!)? We’ve had a 20% salary cut since March 2020. They switched to 15% in August and that’s still effective. And no, they did not provide us any Covid bonus or similar WFH expense. Who/how should I ask?

I had a preliminary phone screening with a recruiter who asked my salary range. I tried to ask for their budget because i didn’t have the full position details, but they didn’t provide and asked again the range I was hoping for. I did end up responding, and secured an interview within the next couple of weeks. If all goes well will there be room for negotiations if I get an offer?

Moved from a regional insurance defense firm in the North East to a national AM100 firm. I was told the firm does not offer a 401K match and that it was uncommon for a firm to match. Is that true? My previous firm did have a match.

Midlevel Corp NYC big law. Received a mixed bag review during mid-year review. Even positive and negative. My reviews over the years have had peaks and valleys. Worried about consistency. Should I dip or at least start talking to recruiters? Didn’t get an action plan or anything but it was a “developmental message.” Besides obviously internalizing and correcting to get better- thoughts on whether I should start looking?

Looking to lateral and I'm having issues pulling a writing sample. My problem is that all of my best writing was filed under seal (and I'm a junior associate, so there's not many options to choose from). I've taken a look at the applicable protective orders and I'm not allowed to share them. I've drafted other dispositive motions but feel they are lacking in comparison.

Does anyone have thoughts on using a non-dispositive motion as a second option? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Any thoughts on when making a lateral move as a mid-level litigation associate will be feasible again? I want to make a change, but (for obvious reasons) I worry firms may not be looking for any more mouths to feed at this time.

Have you ever had another attorney mark up your drafts to where the entire document is basically rewritten, and all of the changes were stylistic and not substantive? I am a third year. A 6th year attorney did this to me. It was a simple ancillary document of which I have drafted plenty of before. I almost want to bring it up to someone but I don’t want to seem whiny but I’m angry? This isn’t the first time Ive felt disrespected by this person and I don’t feel comfortable going to them directly

My firm is lockstep then goes black box. Recently, us associates have started openly discussing what our raises and bonuses have been the past several years. I, a young female who has one of the highest billable hour counts in the firm, just learned I am routinely getting lower raises and bonuses than my male peers. No issues concerning my work product or anything else have been raised at reviews. Is there a solution here or should I run?

I have a friend who left BL to work for SEC and took a $100k slash in income. His professor from Georgetown who worked in SEC for 7 years went into the private sector and starting salary was $2million. This just blows my mind 🤯

Anybody struggling with fellow associates in big law? Currently working with associates that will stab you in the back at all costs and don’t care about building friendships, etc. This environment is mentally draining and I feel like I am an outlier for being kind. Truly shows that nice people finish last.
