Thinking about seeking a lateral position with the ultimate goal of getting a retention bonus from my firm. Is this dishonest? They’re paying laterals through the nose and people who remain loyal won’t get even one of those meeting room pens with a tip you could use on a touchscreen.

Thoughts on a starting salary in NY? I have a concentration I healthcare law, this would be my first position. I graduated then Covid happened. I want to start at 90k because inflation and cost of living but a place I’m going to interview with wants to start at 79/80k. Lowball or is that about right?

Hey guys, just accepted a 110k + bonus + options at a bay tech company for a Sr. Rev. Accountant position. I’m wondering where I should be headed trajectory wise in my career after this position in 1-5 years to try and get my base comp to 200-300k+? Should I be looking at getting promoted to a controller role? Is there something in between? Previously managed finances like a controller (but as a Sr. Accountant) for a smaller 100 employee SaaS company before this. 21M for reference

What does it even mean now to work “in tech”. I feel like people are over romanticizing the “in tech” part to mean working any job in a tech company or the IT department of a company, when I think it should be more towards people in product, design, engineering, and maybe corporate strategy, etc. I’m not trying to gatekeep anyone, but I feel like this is problematic because it bleeds into stuff like “the prestige working in FAANG” but one is in a non-tech role or lower requirement role.

Can someone tell me the salary i should negotiate for business operations program manager roles in a reputed company in Germany? Thanks 🙏

I could use some advice on how I should handle this situation. I found out the other day another editor who started four months ago is making 8% more than I do. For context, I have been here for a little over a year. How do I approach my boss to inquire about a raise? Should I bring up that I know about my teammate's salary?

When is the best time of the year to make a lateral move to another bank? I know it’s the bonus session soon so wondering when people actually quit and join other banks

Why is there not an creative Union? I mean honestly. We’ve got SAG, DGA, Teamsters, Editors Guild, Writers Guild, WGA, Agents and producers even have a Union! So why do creators who actually manufacture the product of an agency not make real money off our ideas.

Partners, what tips would you give to someone who wants to succeed but is stuck in a dead end project/technology/domain. How make the best of the situation and how to get out of it

I just made the switch to my new firm about 3 months ago and the partner and I have not gotten along. I’m a second year in lit, and most of his associates are more senior so he expects us to run point but during the interview I told him I still need a little mentoring. Now, every misstep I make he kills me for it. Should I make a move now or wait it out hoping it gets better?

Is it a coincidence that all partners had their compensation reduced starting today and I haven’t received a single email?

Is anyone just tired from the end of last year or tired In general? I feel like I’m way more tired than most people. Im thinking perhaps people just aren’t talking about how tired and overworked they are.

Any tips on how to get on a consistent morning routine? Ideally I'd wake up early enough for a morning walk and solid breakfast, but I always get out of bed too late and am just so lazy. My partner's schedule changes monthly as he's a resident, so that screws with my sleep schedule a lot.

When is too soon to leave a small law firm, to transition to a better opportunity & leave toxic management?

My current billable hours target is 2100 and I am considering moving to a firm with 2000 minimum. Regardless of the compensation, would a 100 hour difference make some different or would it feel just the same?

I am a new attorney (one year being barred) and I have no confidence when it comes to taking deposition, mainly because English is not my first language. I was taking a deposition last week and the Corp was kind of making fun of me especially when he asked me “what I am asking is a request or demand” and again “what I am asking is a question or an order” I was stunned and didn’t know what to say!
I just need advise from all experienced attorneys how can I improve my deposition taking skills?

I check in with different people each day to ask if there are things I can work on, but what else can I be doing (that isn’t going to annoy the shit out of ppl)? TIA!
