Def not the salary, but I guess the “people” aspect of it- in my experience EY has been pretty chill with flexibility

Sabbatical!

It's whenever you can get someone to let you take it. They paid 30% last year through August, but regular rate is 20% of your salary, plus you stay on benefits and keep accruing PTO. I took a six-week one last year. It was wonderful.

Having a job

Exit opportunities!!!! (x2)

My company blames my generation for not being able to hire everyday. “You guys don’t want to work” coming from some overweight, racist, old coaster. I’ve barely taken any days off this year and pick up “skeleton crew” days any chance I get. I was able to work out a deal with my company before I came because of prior experience luckily, but they offer a terrible base salary and sham of a commission structure to new hires + no remote. Then sit here and can’t figure out why…

Will be leaving for a competitor (different consulting firm) soon and trying to figure out how to approach 2 weeks notice.

TIA!

So, I've tried a few different positions and still hate practicing law BUT I was approached about a contract role that won't have billable hour requirements and I won't be steeped (I think) into the law firm's toxicity, so I'm wondering if it could be the closest thing to a 9 to 5 for law. Pay is hourly which seems weird, but I would have time to devote to hobbies and life generally. Has anyone been tempted by or accepted these contract opportunities, and what's your hot take?
