Senior attorney compensation: I am discussing an opportunity with a Midwest nonprofit doing environmental work. I am curious about salary ranges for someone bringing 20+ years experience and 10 years specific experience, including lots of litigation experience. Chicago area. What is a reasonable offer?

Check out the 990 for the nonprofit you’re looking at and comparable ones to get a sense of how much their most senior staff are paid. It’s also helpful to look at the staffing at the org to get a sense of where senior attorneys fit within the org. At my former nonprofit in dc, senior attorneys maxed out on the pay scale at 15 years and they just received COLA increases after that. At my current org, an attorney with 10 years of experience practicing would make $125k.

AWS vs Cloudflare BDR roles

AWS lowballed but I negotiated to match Cloudflare. Cloudflare offers more equity but AWS has a higher base.

I love Cloudflare. The people are great but it’s an engineering culture and the sales team isn’t as well shaped up and I can’t go for a promotion until at least 18 months of tenure. I am an investor in the company and think of them super highly. I’ve already got half a years SDR experience and AWS promotes quicker.

AWS has prestige but is it worth it?
