Probably anything not ID. Florida seems to have mainly ID which will always result in lower pay, less sophisticated work, worse exit options.

This 100%. Be careful with the Florida market.

Not familiar with the Orlando market, but the litigation group at Holland & Knight WPB is great (assuming litigation based on the clerkship). I believe they pay big law market, for salary at least.

I'm a third year plaintiff's employment law attorney and I'm looking to move to defense, preferably still in employment law.

Is this reasonable? I'm dead-set on leaving my current job, and this would be a $20k pay increase - which makes me believe I'm leaning towards taking it for those reasons only.
