Not guaranteed to make partner but you’re guaranteed to be voted on firmwide. So I should probably add meeting a variety of partners across offices. Most people end up promoted though—either to partner or counsel with the opportunity to be put up again for partner.

I feel like it might be firm specific. I asked folks at my firm and they told me it was no specific guidelines.

Interested to know average salaries
of an Assistant Manager in
Purchasing (London based).
I was promoted from Supervisor to
Assistant Manager within the last
month, prior to my previous
manager being replaced. This is my
second promotion in just under a
year at the company. Based on the
salary I feel undervalued and
demotivated (I'm on just over £30k
and have 3 direct reports in a team
of 12), particularly as my efforts to
negotiate my salary were shot down.
Any advice would be welcomed.
