Why

I think they are setting up shop in Vancouver. Just poached a handful (I personally know 3) of experienced candidates from the big 4. It also seems pay is significantly higher than big 4. Like, closer to American than Canadian salaries.

Happy to refer if anyone is looking to make the switch! Good folks out there, used to be US based.

I switched in ny from big 4 as a director to RSM senior director moving from 230k to 300k (+10% bonus). I was gone within 9 months (beginning of covid). Found out I was the third senior director that was in and out less than a year in NY, and 1 other 1.5 years. They like the idea of having big 4 people but they don’t support you and help you meet people grow your network internal develop business or even feed you work. Then they hold you to goals when you basically have a non compete with your prior firm. They will pay more because nobody would go there from big4 otherwise but they will get you in the backend.

Did you end up leaving after 1 year or so?

How many billable hours do you aim for per month? Thinking of lateraling to a firm with no official hours target and wondering what I should be aiming for - is 170/mo (2000 per year) acceptable? Don’t want to burn out but also don’t want to get fired lol. I also understand there’s little control over how much I’ll work but just wondering what y’all think is good enough.

After many years of doing purely corporate law, I recently moved inhouse to do structured finance. Honestly, I am in unknown territories. My boss also not patient about my re-learning process yet they knew from the interview that I know close to nothing about structured finance. I am 2 months into my 6 months probation period and I am worried that I might have bit more than I can chew. FYI - I am doing all I need to do to learn (books) but still struggling. Any pointers on how to get it faster.
