Summer associate at a v10 in the corporate group and I’m so dissatisfied and unhappy with what I’m doing and what the trajectory looks like ahead. I’m realizing public interest work that fulfills me is my calling (also based on externships and clinics I’ve done in LS so far), but i know the burnout from those is real too. Do i just stick with m&a for versatility purposes and try to leave down the line? I feel like im having an existential crisis.

Any leads on 3L OCI/3L recruiting on the east coast? I’m a summer associate at a small firm this summer looking to move into big law.

I am a new (lateral) associate at a small firm where everyone currently works from the office. When I started, I wasn’t told specific firm hours. I’ve tried to figure out when to come and go based upon when the partners arrive and leave, but their schedules are very inconsistent. The other associates don’t have helpful guidance for me. Assuming that if I ask the partners they’ll say to use my discretion, what are reasonable hours to keep?

Negotiating a settlement. I’m at $10k, opposing counsel is at $20k. My client won’t go higher than $15k. OC has come down to 17.5k and says his client won’t budge from that. Do I offer 12.5k so we can hopefully meet in the middle at 15k? Is that how the settlement game is played? Seems dumb we can’t just say let’s meet in the middle now and be done with this. (I’m a first year, first time negotiating a settlement on my own and I don’t want to screw this up!)

I found out a soon to be 2nd year associate got a 10k raise making his salary 110k now, while I, the soon to be 3rd year associate got a 2k raise making my salary 107k. So now the 2nd year male associate is making more money than me. How do I bring this up to the partners?

I am looking for the post made by the junior associate with the voicemail from the female partner on a Friday night telling her how stupid she is.

Confused why Wachtell qualifies as BigLaw when they have one (small) office

What do you do when you feel the goalpost has been/is being moved re: billable requirements? Like there's a spoken vs unspoken? I chose this job based on billables vs salary and what I'm being told I'm expected to do now is 20-30% (at least) > than what was initially agreed upon. Given my other life responsibilities, this is creating a huge strain & I feel like this is slowly getting harder & harder on my spouse & kids. I'm grateful to have lots of good work but not sure how to course correct.

Its in Texas, and the initial BK filing was made about 23 months ago. TIA!
