So I’ve been on a big tech client adv project for months now and have formed a good relationship with one of the contacts. She’s dropping hints about open positions, and they would pay me about 40% more and I like the company culture, so I want to work there. Will there be a noncompete or other internal problem if I go work for them / tell them I’m interested at the very least?

Specifically, I'm interested in knowing:

3. What the culture is like in the LA, SF, Palo Alto offices
4. Culture in the IP group, specifically patent prosecution

Thanks in advance!

I have been with my current company for about 3 years now and currently at 75k plus employer paid benefits and decent pension plan. Due for review next month and expecting to be offered a 5k raise. However with 6 years of relevant experience I would like to be close to 85k. We hireda new team member for the same role as me as the business is growing. They came in at 75k which bothered me a little because I pretty much began this department and put in a lot of processes. More in comments.

Have a coworker who volunteers for work but never ends up doing it. At what point does it make sense to go to the partner to address this? We’re both midlevels, and I’m tired of having to put in even more time every weekend to pick up his slack. If this were a junior, I’d address it with them first, but this is unacceptable from a fifth/sixth year.

Who else pulled an all nighter and is still grinding out here?

Another post piqued my curiosity but didn’t give me any good drama so I’ll create my own here…Stories of what you/someone else did to get pushed out of a firm in under a year? As a lateral or first year, and both behavior-wise (e.g., getting too drunk or harassing someone) and as related to work ethic (e.g., never replying to emails).

Wondering what Kirkland litigation hours look like in the NY/DC/Chicago offices. Most of the sweatshop stories I hear about are from the corporate and restructuring groups. KE lit associates - what are you billing? Do you feel like you’re getting a good variety of cases?

Asking, kindly, that we collectively stop putting “Please kindly do X” in our emails.

Does anyone feel like based on their practice area they could likely never work at a midsize firm later on and their options are mostly big law or in house? I feel like certain areas just don’t exist at midsize firms (eg, cap markets, bankruptcy, etc)

Texas biglaw: which firms are offering flexibility (at least two days a week of WFH) going forward?

My firm is saying “we aren’t mandating a return but once vaccinated we encourage you to be in the office frequently.” I am still going to WFH twice a week until yelled at but would like to lateral to a firm that’s more flexible.

How is the market for M&A in LA? What sort of clients do you mainly work with?

Decision: big city atty for ntwide ins defense firm for 4 years. gotten great lit experience, over 100 depos, handle own cases. Some big, but lot of run of mill PI. Make above market for work, great rep with partners and autonomy with hrs. Compare to offer for the most reputable firm in city (not ntwide tho), complex lit, not as much depos but more motion work, private pay clients, and tons more comraderie. Pay is same, bttr bnft. Seems right but worried I’d be leaving a stable, established job

Just binged Partners Track. Started BL during pandemic so never actually worked in office. Am I missing all the drama?

Any tips on how to know if your personality would be better suited to transactional work? Junior lit associate and considering retooling while I maybe still can, but worried I’ll regret it.

Is it better in a transactional practice?

As a gift, my parents put down a large down payment on a condo in a VHCOL city. The house is in my name and I’m responsible for the rest of the costs. I had a housewarming the past weekend and invited a few of my colleagues. Today I had a meeting with a partner who suddenly congratulated me and said it must be nice to not have loans and own expensive property as a junior. I didn’t know what to say. Now other people in the office have come up to me and said the same thing…is my reputation ruined?

Is it strange that anyone at my firm (associates/partners) can look up where any lawyer is on billable time for the month? I’m a third year lateral, and my old firm didn’t do that. Is that normal? Feels invasive
