More experienced Ogletree folks.. will not being at 85% billing realization really prevent you from moving up or receiving a bonus? It seems unfair as an associate since I have NO control over it. A case that I spent a ton of time on this year ended up getting a substantial discount on their bill. dropped me to 80% realization.

85% is pretty bad even before the cut that result in 80%. I’d talk to your partners to see how you can be more efficient.

I did not realize OD used the other stats—including realization—to decide salary increases or bonuses? Is that true? Following the discussion.

It’s not written in the guidelines the firm circulated. Not sure where your OMS is getting it from?

I had a realization rate in the 80s last year, got a full bonus.

Got another perm offer in a different industry for similar salary, but I might have to relocate and I'm concerned the work may involve translation instead of pure legal work.

Has anyone found a way to automate salary certifications?

We get about 3-5 requests daily to fill out salary certifications for our employees in EMEA.

At the moment, we have to do all of them manually. We open a pdf, then open their employee file and plug away. It's tedious and time-consuming, but the banks I found won't accept an internal salary certification for some reason. They're adamant about using their form. Has anyone come across this?

Even if EY matches my salary, and promote me to Manager, I will be an EY Manager with a Deloitte SC salary, and probably won't be able to go to D in the future. What do you think? I have built up a good relationship with my Partner and SMs at EY though.

Hello, I’m an associate (almost at the one year mark) at a midsize firm on the EPL team. I did about 2 years of employment law as a clerk during school and know that’s what I want to go into. I’ve asked for more EPL work but keep catching PI cases. I second-chaired an employment trial but don’t see any EPL work for the foreseeable future and wasn’t getting as much EPL exposure as I wanted before the trial. Any advice on a lateral move to a bigger firm with a broader range of EPL work?
