My firm has an all associate meeting next week re: comp. Wish me luck we finally catch up to mid size market salaries instead of languishing with dentons🤞
For context, one guy left and is now at 20k over my firm bc his new firm announced 10k raises across the board right after he joined

So... all things being equal your colleague went through the headache of switching firms for an additional $10k gross before taxes?

That's right he left for the 10k and lucked into the extra 10k. I think he left for culture/comp (nobody is cravath here), not sure his signing bonus but they were matching his year end bonus

Update: we got 20k increases in most offices and some got more like 35k increases. We'll see how it shakes out come bonus season since the bonus eligibility hrs went up, but feeling good far. I could end the year making 30k more than I expected on Jan 1. They also introduced quarterly bonuses which I wasn't expecting but I appreciate since I hit the target for q1
