I'm being asked to be involved in product pricing for the first time, and lack any knowledge or experience in that area. Any suggestions on courses or books or websites? I'm considering the Pragmatic Marketing pricing course, so would be interested to hear from anyone who has taken it.

My husband is wanting to transition from the construction industry to tech. He’s an extremely successful PM but the work life balance in construction is almost nonexistent. Are there any certifications he should get that would help him make the move / any advice on what role he could step in to using his experience as a PM? He is worried he will take a pay cut since his experience so far in his career is construction centric. Appreciate any feedback!

Any credit risk analysts here? What kind of CTC should one expect?

Hey Everyone! I’ve unfortunately just got laid off from my company. This is my second time in 5 months getting laid off due to budget cuts. Quite frankly, I’m drained and in need of leads.

I’m seeking a full time FINTECH company, but I’m open to opportunities because beggars can’t be choosers. Feel free me if you know of anything! —-thank you!

I have to be on antidepressants to continue working and staying in the US. My partner supported this way and hope to turn my situation around in two years. However, I don't know if I can hold on for that long. I don't enjoy working on Accounting on work visa and it drives me depressed...

Can anyone here help me in getting 3lpa+ job in Barclays ?😂

My current job is the first job I took out of college. I've been here for 4 yrs; I want to switch things up and move on to doing something else. How do people look for jobs other LinkedIn and indeed?

How long do 1Ls have to accept their offers at your firms?

This job is tiring

What do you wish you knew about the lateral process before you did it? Any other tips that would be helpful to navigate it? Thanks!

Some partners are so stupid. In a free market system, if you want the good associate to work for you, you need to be a nice person. Otherwise, I have enough partners to feed me work and you’re the source of your own problem.

Will a typo in a thank you email after an interview mean you will pass on the candidate?

Buying my lotto ticket for Friday, preparing to flip the bird to BigLaw and then buy a bird ✈️, Yakt 🛳 and estate 🏚🏘

2nd year here: just got reamed multiple times by a partner in a checklist call for not having enough detail in my open items list. Thing is the draft i had sent the midlevel was far more detailed, they told me to remove it all and make it as barebones as possible. Do I just take this L? I'm pretty annoyed because the partner mentioned it TWICE in the call with clients for my lack of detail.

Midlevel didnt apologize or even acknowledge this issue. I've never been so mad in my career.

Any firms pushing back return to office date because of the delta variant and changing situation?

#justlazyrecruiterthings spamming you about an open position at your old (awful) firm

Can we be honest for a second? No one has a clear policy for how we should be billing our time and no one wants to ask. I’ve heard perspectives ranging from, “a good faith estimate at the end of the week is sufficient” to “you need to have a timer going at all times and if you don’t turn it off when you pee, you’re committing an ethical violation”... also, “Bill anything that moves the deal forward” vs. “You can’t bill for collating documents. That’s not legal work.”

Do lower ranked “big law” firms have better WLB? Deciding between a v10 and a V40. I don’t want to make partner and am not the best attorney (too Exhausted, no more motivation) so am thinking of choosing the V40 for either better WLB or smaller likelihood of getting let go.

Does anyone know what the salary and billing rates are for a 3-4th year associate at ogletree and littler in 𝐍𝐂 and/or NY?

I keep being staffed on arbitrations, which I hate. Do you think it would be appropriate to tell the assigning partners that I’m not interested in that type of work? And if so, how should I do so? I don’t want the seem like a problematic unreasonable associate.

Just got an iPad and looking for app recommendations, particularly for marking up PDFs. Would also appreciate any other recs/advice y’all have for a new iPad user. Thanks in advance!

Anyone here who considered/worked in consulting (MBB/T2) before law school? What was the reason you decided to commit to the law route given fairly similar pay yet arguably better WLB, exit ops, and more stimulating work?

Biglaw Partners: Two questions. What do you enjoy most about being a partner? What do you dislike the most about being a partner?

Are signing bonuses still a thing? For a 7th yr M&A associate in major market / top firm? Not wedded to my current firm and scored a six figure signing bonus a year ago. Wouldn’t be opposed to another large pay day (and ramp down / ramp up hours) now that I’ve passed the claw back period.

Any recommendations for podcasts related to funds/securities law/M&A or similar topics? I’m a first year (funds/funds reg) and was more interested in other areas in law school, so just trying to learn something and stay in the know. I already know about The Deal podcast.

Anyone else super slow? So far this month, I’ve billed 14 hours. 0.5 today. 😞
