How are 1st year litigation associates dealing with WFH? I’ve been having terrible anxiety/panic attacks, and pretty sure my billables wont exceed 110 for April.

Hello Fishies,

I am done with all my rounds at S&P Global and shared my documents to HR. No one has asked about my expected salary yet. Is this usual in their process. How much can I ask for an experience of 9 years. How many days does it take to release the offer and what is the slary structure.

It would be great if anyone could help me understand the salary components.
Basic, HRA, Statutory Bonus, flexible components of TFP - fixed ?
TVP(total variable pay) - will be given a monthly salary ?
