This may seem like a dumb question, but, if you had an in-house offer at a Fortune 500, would you automatically take it? Base comp is almost identical to my firm but switching from lit to transactional and having to prove myself again is worrisome. Any positive stories of similar situations?

Do you like the company, their products, your responsibilities, the team, your manager/reports?

If it's publicly traded, how have the markets been treating it? How do you expect it to perform short and long term?

What is Legal's relationship with the company? Trusted partners or cops?

Do you like transactional work?

So I had all my rounds at Walmart, submitted documents, salary negotiation completed with HR and post that she says that she needs some approval from the business and then will release offer letter.

I wanted to know if anyone else faced a similar situation? Walmart
