I would love to, it would be really useful for people who still can't achieve a complete balance.

I've worked at Abbott Laboratories (AbbVie's parent company) for almost five years, I like their work/life balance because they really encourage community outreach. So it feels like I'm more connected in the community, which really helps because my social skills aren't the best and it's hard for me to make friends.

I live just north of Boston so I'm a little ways from you, but I have only heard good things about that company and I have a good friend who used to work there. She said they expected a very high standard of work (which is a good thing) but they were pretty balanced overall. They have pretty good benefits. Here's some more info: https://www.abbvie.com/careers/benefits.html

I'd suggest trying to talk to someone who works there and has firsthand experience (not me, sadly). There are usually groups on different social media sites where you can network with people in the same business and eventually you should be able to make contact with someone in that way. Might take awhile but it's worth it IMO

I’m in-house at a small company (60 people), started right out of law school about 5 years ago. We had a legal team of 5 then. Everyone has left and we just hired a new GC. I went from $70k to $100k a little over a year ago. I am expecting an offer from a firm doing business law work but think this might be an opportunity to go to my current employer and ask for a significant raise, with new offer in hand. Any thoughts or advice going into this?
