What do you think about unlimited paid time off policies? On one hand, it sounds amazing to have the freedom to take as much time as you need. But I’ve heard that some people end up taking less time off because they feel guilty or worry about work piling up. Personally, I think it really depends on the company culture. What’s your take? Are unlimited PTO policies a true benefit or do they create more stress?

How is productivity measured for in-house attorneys? Is there any analog of billable hours for in-house lawyers?

Do you think partners in law firms have too much power and autonomy? eg. the power to refuse leave, to do your annual appraisal, to make you work while on leave, to overwork people, to manage the team on their on terms etc. Is this power bad or good for the firm and the team overall?

Related question - Do you think the HR in law firms are just there for show since the partners have a lot of power and autonomy?

Why do many associates at top tier firms stay to make Partner when they can go in-house in tech and make around the same, even long term? For example, you can make near 400-550k in-house at Google, Netflix, FB with 8-10 years of exp. More senior than that in-house, it can easily break $1M.
