Looking for general advice on where to take my career next and make the same if not more. I currently work at Salesforce in an AE role and I’m on pace to make $280-300K. I enjoyed being a CSM more than an AE but it doesn’t pay as much. I feel stuck!

That is a tough position to be in. I have seen people stay in roles they enjoy less because the pay gap is hard to ignore. Sometimes quality of life becomes the deciding factor.

Texans. Just got an offer from a V10 to relocate down and do litigation. Excited but the offer was 20k below market. Talked to managing partner and they said it’s the market in Houston so if I can find other firms paying full market they will raise it since I’ll be the only jr. - mid level. So give me names, who pays cravath in Houston?
