My general impression is that tech companies hire more senior L/E counsels (5-6 YOE) instead of junior ones (3-4 YOE). Is this true, especially at FAANG? Thanks!

Counter offer 101: offer received. Want more money. Well respected at current agency. Indispensable on two marquee accounts. New job is at better agency, but current is great too. What to do and how?

URGENT: Can anyone refer me for an entry-level software engineer/ Trainee Software engineer role (Java preferred)? I need a job on an urgent basis as my current organization has asked me to put down my papers due to changed business requirements (read layoffs) and has given me 30 days to find a new job. And I would really appreciate you guys if you can provide me with any help in this situation.

Thanks in advance

I just got interrogated on a interview. Some people shouldn’t be recruiters. Just saying

Do I accept a job position in an area that I’m unsure if I like because I haven’t really practiced in it as much but the pay is really good? Or do I stay in a job position that allows me to work in the area that I think I’m interested in staying in long term but the pay is much lower? For reference I am a third year.

My supervisor gave me 8hours of AWOL because I couldn't show up one day because I was under anxiety. I have gave him letters from psychiatrist,psychologist that I'm passing through this. He didn't care and gave me an AWOL. I want to leave my job because my department is very toxic but I don't want to leave having that on my records.
If I move to another job later on (private or federal) this 8 hours of AWOL will show up?

Anyone from MAQ software, please DM

I've become really jaded about consulting. I find all so often you need to tell the client what they want to hear to keep their business and I feel like so much of the what I recommend doesn't actually get implemented. I'm looking to make a career switch so I can both create and execute on my strategies. A product management path seems very promising for this.

Does anyone who switched from consulting to product management have any recommendations of h helpful PM books, courses, or programs?

Those of you that were on Agency and switched over are you producing projects at the same level? Is there operational support? Can you push back on the bad ideas? Are there leaders who ‘get it’?

Currently a L7 at AWS, going for L8. Been offered a VP position at Capgemini. Ignoring the financials, what reasons / factors would you consider important when making a decision. FYI, I am in a Consumer Goods specialist space and think that in the domain I work in, AWS is definitely a tech leader.

Thoughts on recording meetings. In Texas and have ADHD. I’ve been recording internal meetings for the past couple of weeks and my work product has improved exponentially. I’m able to go back and listen to the directions over again. In law school I had a note that gave me permission to do this. Is this taboo in a firm?

While interviewing has anyone been asked by the interviewer what qualities they (the interviewee) think are needed to be successful in the role? What’s the purpose of this?

To all the fishes who made BizOps/Product exits, any courses or programs/certifications you did that made your recruiting experience easier?

what would be an average in house salary for an employment counsel with 3 years experience?

Is anyone working closely enough with hr that you sign off on every termination? If so what's the process? Most are likely rubber stamp approval but good to have visibility into Ines hr may not see as risky or to see possible trends. About 2k us employees in manufacturing and r&d

Any offices mandating vaccinations as a condition of employment? Or introducing it as a condition of employment for new joiners? Not happening widely yet but it can’t be far off at this rate… if clients ask to deal with vaccinated staff only

Practicing 11 years at larger regional firm. Experience is L&E, complex commercial litigation, products, contract disputes, trade secret litigation (really varied on the litigation side). What types of in-house positions might I be qualified for? Considering a switch.

Been on my mind for a while, all thoughts welcome!
So I’m gonna assume that most of us in L&E are in it for the passion, otherwise we would have taken corporate commercial or M&A for the money.
So… where do you see your ‘ultimate resting spot’? Would it be 1) global head of L&E law at a big company, having to always be under the global GC, or 2) just collect enough experience to take the GC route? This of course has way more money, but work with stuff that doesn’t excite you as much, or 3)…?

I’m finally making the jump to in-house after getting a bit burned out working in law firms. I’m really looking forward to it and have been considering going in-house for a couple years. But I’m also a bit nervous as I’ve only worked for firms. Any advice for a new in-house labor and employment attorney?

Are there any L&E legal/bar associations that you all would recommend?
