Hello Fishers, need your help to finalize my decision.
I have 5 YOE and I have done a full-time MBA. I am currently working with one of the product organizations as a business analyst. TIAA offering 17 LPA Fixed (Including PF) against 1 counter offer I had of 15.6 LPA Fixed.
My CCTC is 9.35 LPA so should I ask for more here? Also, how are work culture and policies considering I will be part of the BA profile?

Hi Guys, wats up in Volvo. I am recent joiner to volvo,my manager is insisting I come to office 2 days a week and relocate to base location, he is insisting this is HR policy. Though I asked him I can work 8 days from office in a month together & rest from my home, but he is not accepting. Any advises how to mitigate this issue. Volvo

Yes of course. I have been for 7 years. Just ask for what you want. That’s one of the great things about private practice, you just negotiate for the deal you want.

I make sure I’m not being taken advantage of by not working much more than we agreed. If I’m unavailable because I need to snag my kids at 3 or whatever, I just say I’m unavailable. I don’t volunteer for much. When I need to be somewhere in person (a few times a year), I’m there with bells on. I do good work.
I’m in a niche area of law.
I’m 85% FTE
I had a baby and I just can’t do it all at full time

I have definitely heard of firms that don’t provide a true up. You do need to make sure you’re not being taken advantage of
Theoretically yes. Maybe there’s even a firm policy. But practically I haven’t found any role models that have successfully gone this path. With the exception of staff attorneys but that requires a significant pay cut
Glad to hear you’ve had a different experience! I’m in a secondary market and hope it becomes more common
I'm 60% and have consistently billed that much for the past few years. I love it!
What kind of work do you do?
2/3rds time
I'm moving to about 75% at my firm of 40 attorneys. We had a rough 1800 billables goal at full time, bonus eligible at 1600. I'm moving to 1200, at 75% salary.
How did you approach this conversation? Also, what kind of work do you do? Are you in litigation?
