Just been told I can't go to an extended family dinner (birthday celebration planned a month ago) because we have to "make as much progress as possible" on some advice not due until next week. I have the day off tomorrow, which I offered to use to catch up on work missed tonight. No dice. But I can still take my day off??? This doesn't make sense to me.

Hey guys,
Can we take leave when we are on notice period? How many days and which leave can I opt for.

Got an offer today...

Applied for a mechanical engineering position. Salary range was 65-75k a year. When asked about salary during the first interview, I replied 70k is my number. Later I found out that since it's a small company no health benefits would be provided, but 10 PTO days are included. Had I known about the lack of health benefits and 401k match I would have increased my bottom.

The offer today was for 70k but now I'm not sure if I should try to negotiate for another 2-3k?

PTO tm gang? 🙋🏼‍♀️

Is RFB component included in the monthly salary? I am asking this because in the PWC offer it is written below the Total ( monthly) . This is leading to a confusion. Please reply. I know flexible benefits are added in monthly salary if I do not declare anything but since this amount is mentioned at the bottom, i am confused. Help!

Is it an expectation for first years to not take time off?

Once I apply for resignation at Accenture, can I avail my paid leaves?

What’s your average billables on a Friday? Always my lowest day.

I lateraled from big law to a mid law firm and to a different field with low hour reqs - I find myself billing appr. 50 hrs more than my colleagues. I don’t really mind because the work is way more exciting than before but in the end it still is kind of annoying. Just what’s on my mind…

As a junior associate, how do you find the healthy balance to take initiative in matters as opposed to wasting billable time on something the client won’t pay for or the partner might not actually want?

How is the billable rate for each associate determined at your firm? Does everyone in the same class bill out at the same rate?

Project estimated to take 5 hours took me 8. What do I do re billing? Partner I never worked for before.

Billed 0 hours today. 4 hours all week. Wooo!!!

While I do enjoy dressing more casually, does anyone else find that wearing a suit helped with the imposter syndrome?

I saw someone one of these bowls say being VP at a bank/hedge fund is no big deal for someone in finance and is nothing to brag about. Is this so? If so, why? I’d never heard that before

All through my time coming up through law school I had people talk about “make sure to befriend the paralegals,” “the paralegals know more than most attorneys,” etc. However, in my experience, paralegals and other support staff are pretty much useless for doing anything besides the very narrow house of tasks that they do every day. They push back on asking them to assist with anything else and are generally very unhelpful. Is the “helpful paralegal” meme just a myth or a memory from decades ago?

Which V20 has the worst culture and why?

How long does it take to draft a complaint

Partners - how much time do you spend thinking about your associates? Like do you ever talk to your friends or family about your associates (good or bad)? When an associate messes up do you talk to other partners about it?

Curious as to the pros and cons between a healthcare transactional/regulatory practice vs. comm lit practice (currently repping financial institutions and insurance companies in 1st/3rd party) in Big Law. Currently taking projects from both groups but came to the firm as a lit attorney. I’m trying to consider factors like work load, recession proof, exit ops, etc. Anyone have any insight? Thank you! Currently a second year.

Did any one else’s firm just not engage with them during the majority of the WFH period? While when the lock down first happened we had a few zoom get togethers, they quickly disappeared. I’m only a first year and while my practice group ended up being pretty busy I had been hoping for more engagement from partners/senior associates. While I would set up calls and they would say yes, I can’t help but feel ignored by the lack of outreach. Am I asking too much to expect at least a monthly checkin

I rarely work weekends and my WLB isn’t that bad. Is my experience really that atypical? V20 firm, class of 2017, never billed under 2k in a year.

Do you talk about your bonus size with colleagues at large firms where bonuses vary?
