My partner is looking for a new job as her company recently cut her salary and was a mess before COVID. I feel stuck in my current role and also want to find a new job. Is it too risky for us both to start a new job this year? I have job security, but don’t feel challenged anymore and want to move on...

Wait it out till she’s settled in her new job.

My suggestion is to wait until she finds a new job, and is secure there. If anything, maybe you can start applying and getting a feel for what you want to go to next. Just avoid having you both be out of work and looking at the same time

Her situation is more critical given salary cuts, so agree probably best to stay put while she finds the right opportunity.

I'm a first yr attorney at an insurance firm and am in the process of interviewing for an in-house position at a tech company. The position is pretty much generalist, but I get the impression I'd be working mostly on SaaS and partnership transactions. I definitely think I would like the transactional work better, but I am concerned about the long-term earning potential vs. partnership. How common is it to eventually make $400k+ in-house/how difficult is it to transition back to a firm? Thanks!
