Salary expectation of Senior consultant at Big Fours

Guys do you get to pay back a sign-on bonus if the reason for separation is not from the employee (e.g. severance)

What is the going rate for enterprise national account managers/salespeople? I work at a FAANG and make a 120K base and cleared 280K last year total comp (commission, RSUs, 401(k)). I make so much more than my last job at a non tech company, that I always assumed I was making a ton. But I am curious how this compares to other tech companies. Been here 6 years.

I currently work for a company that has 91 employees and I’m the only HR person here. I only make 56K a year and I’m for sure getting screwed since I live in Lancaster, PA. I have a bachelors in Comm/HR with 3 YOE in HR.

What should my salary range be? This is great experience but I’d like to know if it’s even worth the stress. I’m looking to work remote and would love to still be involved in HR. What’s a good asking price for a remote HR generalist position with my experience?

Hello everyone. Is anyone in the process of joining D-USI ? I received a 3rd revised offer letter about a day after the “market adjustment”. I contacted the HR and informed them that there were no updates on it, and they said a new one will be sent with updates.

I’m curious as to what these updates are. Anyone else facing something similar ? I’m assuming it’s minor changes to the T&C, and not a comp update.

TIA.

Not sure what's wrong with these new age / gen kids who just finish graduation and follow it with a tier 2 mba degree and then after 1-2 years in an entry level service based role start asking for strategy consulting roles in interviews, i mean its okay to try, but one should learn the required skills and then try, not the other way round!

Advice for young attorneys dealing with non-billable workload? I’m still my first two months at my firm but a ton of the work I’m being assigned is non-billable. I understand if I’m not still fully on boarded but how are we supposed to keep up billables while being given time consuming non billable work?

Anyone have Big Law experience in Seattle? Any firms to rave about or shy away from? Looking at Perkins Coie, Wilson Sonsini and Cooley in particular. Is it better than NYC or more of the same?

To experienced attorneys at large employers, has anyone tried starting a small side practice in a different area of law (wills & trusts, for example) and succeeded in building it out over time? Notwithstanding my present employer being happy/okay with this, curious as to the feasibility when I have no real experience in the practice area.
Would like a separate law-related side hustle to potentially build into my full time work down the road. Thanks.

Does anyone work at a firm that does not offer year-end bonuses? I’m currently at a 25-50 person firm in a major market (CA) that mostly operates on big contingency cases. There were firm-wide paycuts at the beginning of Covid (still in effect). I’ve billed in excess of 2,000 hours and am feeling both cheated and a real lack of motivation.

Anyone else experience anything like this? Recommendations (other than leaving)?

Tax lawyer considering expanding practice from transactional tax to tax controversy. Thoughts, Especially in light of the economy? Would this increase my marketability down the line?

Current bankruptcy clerk in a non-major market in the northeast. My term ends in April of next year and I’m starting to think about my next move. I follow the economy closely and know the general expectation is things will start to slow down/bankruptcies pick up again soon but I still don’t see many BK positions posted yet. I’m hoping to move back to Chicago and I was wondering if anyone in BL (Chicago or otherwise) have any insight into associate hiring in the next 8-12 months in RX/BK groups.

Cost to add two kids to health insurance. Hi! Considering leaving in house job ( where my company pays for all my and my two kids healthcare) to a small firm that will just cover the cost of my health care. I will have to cover the cost to add my two dependents. Any idea what this might be- ballpark?

I have practiced law for several years and still struggle with the feast-or-famine nature of my practice. (Sudden rush of client outreach, many emergencies, then … nothing). A famine week might be 3-4 billable hours/day. My practice area does not have a predictable annual cycle, like “year end” or “tax day.” Any tips from other attorneys for how to recognize, predict, and/or even out these periods?

Had my annual review earlier today and I’m not happy with the raise and bonus offered. Aside from the managing partner, there were several other non-equity partners in the room and I didn’t feel comfortable negotiating in front of everyone. I’d rather speak to the managing partner alone as he’s the only one who has the ability to make decisions. I’ll have to wait until Monday to do it in-person but wondering if I should set up a call between now and Monday to discuss? Would Monday be too late?

I have been reading posts from newer associates about bad things partners have done or said to them and I think it could be fun for some of us more senior lawyers in the bowl to tell stories of mean things partners did or said to us when we were new associates. Hopefully it stays mostly light and not horrible things.
