They're always hiring, because people are always leaving. I wouldn't read too much into it.

A1 - do you think clients at other firms are slower to settle because they aren’t insured? Do they want to settle at all or skip negotiations?

I feel like every big 4 firm is constantly hiring

Having worked at JL and another Big Four firm currently, the turnover at JL was substantially higher than my current firm. In the two years since I left JL, literally the entire office’s associate pool turned over. Meanwhile, at my current firm, which has ~3x higher headcount, we’ve had one associate resign to change legal fields and one associate resign to go in-house. That’s it. We’ve been constantly hiring solely because we’ve been growing.

As a JL associate I can confirm that JL mistreats its employees - that’s why there is high turnover.

They are trying to grow the firm.

Grow really.? Paralegals aren't meeting billables. Associates don't have work consequently hogging all they can get to meet billable time. Makes no sense to grow if there's not enough work to go around. SMH. (Speaking from Chicago office only)

Toxic environment. At least in Chicago.

Toxic, overworked associates in DTLA

I just don’t want to get stuck in a specialty and not be able to move up because of it. Any advice?

TIA!

After you moved in-house, how did you get more comfortable reviewing contracts or counseling on issues you weren’t super familiar with? I was very specialized at my law firm and took a similarly specialized role in-house….but I still get requests to mark-up types of agreements that I never touched at my firm. I’ve been trying to find CLEs to get up to speed, but I’m wondering if this is generally something that gets more comfortable with time…
