Is it true that there’s a lot of 2-4 year lateraling in January?

Would recommend starting your search now if you’re planning on a early 2023 move. Lots of those January moves you see have been planned for a while

On the firm side it’s not by design, but things come up and the firm won’t want to guarantee a bonus this late in the year.

I have certain firms in mind that I know are hiring, but I’ve got serious life changes happening that kind of take precedence so I’m not ready to focus on making a move just yet.

Doubt it

There’s always a January shuffle, offers received and accepted waiting for bonus to clear before resigning. Doesn’t look to me like there’s more than usual.

Explain to me like I’m 5. Why does the monthly billable hours goal on things like Intellistat change month to month. I’m not hitting hours this year. Last month goal was 158. This months goal is 180.

If you are a first year in a stub year, and significantly under billable hours requirement, do firms typically still give pro rated bonus? Do first year stub associates really ever hit their pro rated hours in those 2-3 months?

I’m a 9th year in a mostly litigation-based practice group at a one-tier partnership firm. My group’s billable hours have been low the last few years, so making partner will be nearly impossible, and a counsel position is not viable long-term in my group. What’s the best option here if partnership is the ultimate goal? Try to get a NEP/counsel position at another firm, which is likely difficult in my market, or offer to take a class cut by a few years?
