Big law in the sense that it's big. But, no, comp. is not market big law.

It's Big Law in that it's a huge AmLaw 100 firm. But it doesn't offer Big Law salaries. That also means they don't work you to the bone over there.

I hate this answer but comp is office specific as well but that said, not big law scale

Not biglaw. Cobbled together insurance defense firms.

I thought that was Lewis Brisbois…

OP, what’s the context? Comp? Reputation for quality? Influence?

I would not work at Jackson Lewis unless you strike out at other BigLaw firms or firms specializing in labor and employment. It’s not a bad firm but there is too wide a variance in skill and training level to start at a firm like that unless you lack other choices.

I’ve been at a job for a few months and hate it - partners set unrealistic deadlines, micromanage, and create work that truly is not necessary/push urgency when there is no real urgency. I had other offers prior to accepting this job that may still be options, and going back to my old job (for a pay cut) might also be an option. I can’t tell if this is just burnout, growing pains, or just an untenable work environment. Would you ride it out for a year at new job or pursue other options? HELP!
