What makes being a partner “worth it” at a V100/Am100 firm? Seems partners have a lot of the same complaints about staffing issues, workload, and compensation.

I mean the average equity partner makes at least 1 million a year. In theory they could work as an equity partner for 5 years and probably be set for the rest of their lives idk just guessing at this point.

Money is the only reason why anything at a V100 is “worth it”. V50 equity partners make $1m+ per year so any complaints by then about compensation should be taken with a grain of salt.

Condensation complaints from EPs at these firms probably are in comparison to other EPs and not in comparison to what the rest of the firm or society makes.

I would say: a seat at the table and less people who can tell you what to do.

SA1, P1: That depends on the firm. Mine has a system of levels and multiples of gains plus bonus for EPs and a determined amount plus bonus for income partners (US, big law). Magic circle firms work with a point system and if the firm determines that you do not get points you will likely not get more than last year.

My sales lead just gave me my quota for the year. Its increased 120% from last year. I asked if my peers experienced the same increase and the answer is No because I have more experience and up for promo this year. Our bonuses are a % of quota achieved meaning it’s harder for me to get a bonus. Do you think this is fair? What would you do? For additional context, I crushed my quota last year but I feel like I’m being punished now.

I just received an offer on a job I would really like to accept. The salary offer is about 25% higher than my current salary, which I am happy about, but is also the low $ on the range I had expressed to the recruiter and the exact $ that I put on the online application (I had to put a $ figure). Am I being greedy trying to negotiate for a bit higher? Do they expect me to counter? I have been burned by NOT negotiating in the past but who can be mad at a 25% increase??
