Is the Big4 to in-house pipeline as good as people say it is? What about for those of us outside of New York, Chicago, or California?

I’m at a Big 4 firm and it’s very common for people to leave to go in-house. In fact, shareholders will often circulate job postings when our clients are looking to hire. It’s almost considered a good thing when people leave to go in-house because it can strengthen our relationship with that client or turn a company into a future client.

I don’t think it’s any more difficult to go in house from Big 4 than it is from biglaw, and arguably easier from Big 4 given the broad experience you get as opposed to being pigeonholed in deal work/transactional support in biglaw.

Would think Big 4 opens more doors just given the name brand in employment space and have a leg up on spots that open up at clients

These 4 firms are all merely medium crappy. I had a case with littler once in which they claimed literally everything was hearsay, including their client’s statements about itself on its own website. Those lawyers were dumber than a second coat of paint. Go work at seyfarth or Morgan Lewis with the literate psycopaths

Recently received an offer from Ogletree to do only class action work. It'll be a big change for me, I'll be starting as a fourth year. Double my current salary, etc.

What will this be like? It's more of a niche, but lucrative, part of their practice, right? Will I really get good WLB like they claim? I have a nice 40 hour a week job right now, no billables.

Not sure if that’s a typical caseload or not?

What do you think about the mismatch of labor and employment laws and the modern nature of our economy after the technological boom? Am I the only one who thinks (and am I crazy to think) there are some benefits to workers from the gig economy, and it might be best long term to pass new employment laws to ensure worker protections while maintaining these benefits instead of trying to shove the current gig economy back into the 1960s? I’d love to hear your thoughts.
