Lots of variables here and unlikely privacy is making more then other in-house roles unless it’s a CPO. I do practice privacy but my salary is vastly different now that I switched companies and I’m more experienced. What is your year, location, company size, and industry?

Hey Fishes!!! Any idea, how many days would it take for TechM to process the offer letter from the date of Letter of Intent?

My company historically paid base comp and bonus based on years out of law school. Level 1 is 1-9, and Level 2 is 10+. Diff if $50k+, easily. My team’s work isn’t distributed any differently based on seniority, and we’re all doing the same subject matter. We have a new GC changing it so bonus can be higher (but not lower) if you take on more work.

Do you think this is a fair system? Is it right to push for equal comp, especially given that there’s a new reward system for doing more work?
