That's a long time, hope you find something soon! I also find exercise is extremely helpful. I'm trying to keep my head up, but all the news is just getting depressing, still lots of layoffs happening it seems. I'd been hoping this year would be a good one, but six weeks in and it seems like that won't be the case.

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.

Just found out that end of the year I will be promoted from analyst directly to VP and since it’s such a large jump I’ll be the lowest paid VP in asset management at only $135k TC.
