On a typical weekend, how many hours are you working? I think it's a rare weekend that I don't have to put in 12 to 15 hours.

Never but I work 40-50 during the week.

Are you working 35-40 during the week or do you find yourself needing the 12-15 over the weekend to get to that number?

In lit I’d agree that 47-55/week is not a super sustainable range long-term. But if it’s because they are only billing 20-25 during the week, they need to take a hard look at how efficient they are being.

0. Several years ago there were often consecutive months I didn’t get a day off (on top of pulling multiple all nighters and several nights past midnight), but now I’ve earned enough autonomy I don’t do that anymore. I still have the occasional heavy week requiring late night or weekend work, but not even once a month anymore and only because I’m working on something I want to invest the time in

Hi everyone, I am 4.9 years experienced , I joined Fractal 3 months ago as a data engineer, but still haven't got any project. Process is so slow that I have received only 4 to 5 project calls. I switched in hopes that will learn the new tech and tools. But now i am starting to forget even the one i knew. Should i go for change or wait a little more time as fractal is reputed in AI/ML? I have interview lined up with Impetus as for now. Would it be better choice?

What is considered a “large” caseload in employment litigation? I work at a large L&E boutique law firm and handling about 14-15 active litigation cases in state/federal court or arbitration. Some of these matters are multi-plaintiff and multi-defendant cases, but none are class actions. This does not include any matters I am handling in the charge stage or in pre-litigation. Not sure if that’s a typical caseload or not?

I have a governmental entity client in Texas that wants to offer 6 weeks of paid parental leave for all employees, even those who aren’t eligible for FMLA. After the paid 6 weeks, the employee can choose to continue paid leave using any accrued personal leave.

Texas does not have a paid parental leave statute.

If paid leave above what is required is offered for parents, do we also have to provide the same benefit to other employees that are eligible for unpaid leave?
