It is. The median is before “special” bonuses.

That snippet doesn’t show the full bonus memo. The special bonuses were treated as completely separate.

A1 - they don’t tell us. It’s black box. They also factor in things like performance, firm citizenship, committee service, etc. But AsComm doesn’t give specifics on how it’s calculated.

What is the hour requirement for median and top bonus?

Apparently to get top bonus you need top performance rating grade and to be in top 10% of hours for your level across the firm

What’s the deal with the “one bad review sinking you” thing? Any truth to that? Seems kinda draconian if true.

3% of associates got “mixed” or “disappointing” and as a result got their bonuses docked. Could you end up in the bottom 3% based on “one bad review”? Sure, I suppose. But when you can’t crack the 4th percentile as an associate it’s probably worth some self-reflection.

Received a job offer. Was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on a concern I had about it. It's an entry level position, and I don't have much experience. The billables are 2040 a year. For billable hours in civil litigation and insurance defense, is 2040 hours for a 1st year associate on the high end in this field for a small or midsize firm? It seems like most attorneys I know have minimum requirements of around 1800. The compensation is around 80k a year.

First year associate thinking about making the just from medium sized reputable IP firm to In House. Started at said firm summer of 1L year as a law clerk/patent agent in May 2019, have worked through school and full time as associate since Sept 2021. Feeling very “stuck” in day to day work. Love the patent/IP space but drafting and pros w/minimal human interaction is getting very difficult. Thinking In House would be better, but not sure how much experience needed. Thoughts?
