I hate this job. That is all.
I interviewed with Firm A months ago and accepted a position to start this upcoming fall. Group leader called me to offer the position back in November 2020. Besides interviewing with partners at the firms, and diligent follow ups notifying them of my interest to get started, no communication has transpired since.It turns out that I accepted a better offer w/ Firm B for personal reasons and won’t be going to Firm A. What is the best way to notify Firm A? Call/email group leader? Call/email HR?

At some firm, harder to make partner. Less plugged in to firm dynamics and politics. Less face time with people you may want to work with.
If those don’t matter/can be mitigated, I’d see little downside.

The salary and bonus structures will likely be different in the satellite office. There is risk that you continue doing the same work but for far less money.
This shouldn’t be true at good firms

They lower your salary to market.

Our satellite office associates definitely get staffed less and it’s harder to make partner
