Red flag? I was approached about a GC opportunity at a smaller company. They are moving quickly- I’ve had two interviews in a week and they want to do a final interview in a week or so. The current GC is retiring. I’m currently in-house and the process took several months. Is it a red flag that it is moving so fast, or am I overthinking it? Thank you.

If you practice collections in-house, what do you earn and do you receive a bonus?

I have practiced for five years and make $121k as an employee of a financial services company.

I receive only a $1k bonus per year. Is my compensation fair? My last insurance defense gig was $75k.

Does your company use a ticketing system to manage emails received by the legal department? What works and doesn’t work your team?

When I moved in-house a year ago as a BigLaw mid-level, I took a 45% pay cut, far more than I was comfortable with (although I was fine with a 20-30% cut). I took the job because it was a great role and I was focused on making the jump in house and developing the skills I wanted, which required me moving away from my firm practice area. Now that my year-end review is coming up, how do I ask my company for a significant pay raise (not just a 2-5% inflation-matching raise)?
