Resignation dilemma: after working in a small immigration/family law firm (2 attorneys) for almost 4 years with only a 5% salary increase in that time, I was recruited for a larger family law firm (9 attorneys), offering better benefits and a 45% pay increase, but less flexibility. When I informed my boss, she countered with a 36% increase and unlimited vacation. What started as an easy numbers decision has become a more complicated calculus now. Should I even entertain the counter offer?

Looking to help anyone evaluate their offer letters. Feel free to DM our company works with many businesses and candidates to negotiate salaries

Bangalore AC. Senior Associate 2. What's the salary band?

My DOJ at ey gds is 26th Oct. In the offer letter it was stated that i can work remotely until I'm asked to join the office. But within the offer letter itself they have provided info regarding reallocation reimbursement. So should i actually go to the office on 26th or can i work remotely until I'm asked to join the office.

In an internal where the other designer’s option in objectively not as good as mine. I swear it’s not my ego talking. But the CD seems to give more praise to her. Why does that happen? Is it over compensation? Anyone have the same experience? Would love a CD’s POV.

Hello , I have accepted an offer from a UK firm , they mentioned that they will provide coc form to me and then I have to apply for a visa (they will reimburse the visa cost)
Is this a norm there ?

My F1 OPT visa is expiring in a couple of weeks. My employer sponsors h1b but I didn’t make the lottery. Fortunately my partner and I are getting married and will be filing for green card. However, I’ve heard cases where green card through marriage can fail and in that case I’d be left with no visa status. Would you invest about $20-30k to transfer your F1 visa now to a 2 year CPT program as a safety net?

Recruiter was supposed to follow up with hiring manager on comp budget and interview time for this week. Never heard back. Not sure if I priced myself out or things are on hold because of virus.

For a Salesforce developer for 9 years , what is the maximum salary one should look for ?Any inputs will be appreciated

I am a 2nd Gen KA. I can’t vibe well with 1st or 1.5 Gen Koreans.

I’m pretty sure colleagues at my firm are inflating their billable hours. Is this the norm? I suspect many of you will think this is obvious and/or that I’m naive but wtf? I find hitting 2200 is tough even with a good sized work load. Am I just expected to play the game? I don’t want to sound self-righteous but if most are lying just to make the requirement, then maybe the requirement should be lower.

My mid-sized firm furloughed most of its staff. Im a first year associate (7 months in) with not that many billable hours. What are the chances I’m next? So much paranoia!

Any chance to lateral upwards?

If a pure employment law firm has a solid mix of private clients and insurance carriers, would you still call it insurance defense?

I’m a second year associate at a large law firm in a small market. This year, we have been slow and I absolutely hate the work I do have. Should I ride it out or start looking around?

What is Littler’s pay scale for second and third years?

Is it normal for contract attorneys to have the same billable requirements but half the compensation, or does the lower salary come with lower reqs?

I honestly think I’ve developed PTSD from sitting still in the office for many hours everyday. Most days I feel panicked and stuck and can’t concentrate. Does this happen to you ? How do you deal?

Any tips/tricks for the UBE, particularly the MEE or MPT portions? I did a couple practice MPTs but largely ignored it because most samples are simplified work tasks (memos, letters, whatnot). What did you do for MPT prep? Was it sufficient?

How would you compare the UBE to a state-specific exam (like Florida or California) in terms of difficulty?

Thanks everyone!

Jackson Lewis?
I have an offer at Jackson Lewis and was curious how people liked working there. Is there a lot of turn over? How are partnership prospects? What’s the culture like?

Confession: I love staying home with my husband and dog, and I kinda dread the pandemic ending. I don’t want to be forced to leave my house. I never want to go to the office again. I don’t really miss socializing with colleagues and friends. I absolutely love staying home and dread the day I’m expected to go into the office even a couple of days a week. I think I’ll be very depressed leaving my husband and dog every day after seeing how nice it is to stay home with them.

Anyone here dealing with long-distance eldercare? My parents need more hands-on support but they live a plane ride away. Any advice on how to manage without moving someone? A move isn't possible atm

Anxious q for people who went through 08/09 – will incoming first years likely be laid off or mostly starts delayed? Should I start thinking of a backup? Lit at V10 Biglaw if anyone can speak to that

Nervous for my annual review. Junior associate at a midsize ID firm. Most of my work is task based and I recently got a few of my own arb level cases (in the last month.) Between COVID and studying for a second bar admission as required by my firm, I did not meet my 2100 requirement for the year. Lots of non billable hours studying and business development, but firm doesn’t count it toward the minimum. Extremely burnt out and anxious. Any suggestions to make this review less awful?

Hot take- law school career services people push grads who aren't getting into biglaw into solo practice to preserve the school's employment numbers.

Hi new here. Idk what my value is and if I’m getting paid an amount that reflects my hard work. I am a paralegal for a small law firm (family and immigration) w only 1 attorney. I have about 20 files or more in my rotation at a time. I work on various types of cases at once. Some are simple, others are extensive. I feel like it’s very unstructured and one of the managers micromanages. It’s like every man for himself. Take home pay is $50k. I am working on my bachelors deg. Do I get paid enough?

How would you request a performance review from your partner?

How do you bill for a project when your constantly getting distracted by other matters, calls, emails etc. I’m honestly just estimating what it should have taken.
