When lateraling and negotiating for a full year end bonus at the new firm, do they ask how much I’ve billed so far at my current firm to make sure I would have received it at my current firm?

They might ask you during interviews but in my experience it hasn’t come up when I received lateral offers

IME, they usually ask what your're billing.

Just lie. They have no way to prove it. I lateraled to a V5 a few years ago and they asked if I had billed at least 1800. I said yes!

Yeah I claimed I had been “right on pace” when I had billed 1300 😅

I wasn’t asked

No they don’t in my experience

I wasn’t asked.

Probably not

Hi all! Is anyone here in Underwriting? Just want some thoughts on this as i’ve recently gotten an offer for an Underwriting Associate position and have never done any salary negotiations before. Does it seem unrealistic for my counter offer to be 12k more than the original offer? Considering that the original offer is roughly 8k less than the market salary. Plus i’m also accounting for wiggle room as i’m not expecting them to actually agree with the full 12k counter offer

Hi Fishes, Y.O.E 7.5+ years. Tata Consultancy TCS is offering 25LPA including variable pay and everything. So just 15% increment on my current salary since they mentioned I am leaving my current organization within 1 year.

They mentioned 8-12% is VP plus 80k from that salary is paid at the end of each year. Is it a good enough salary for 7.5+ yoe candidate. Also any heads up for the things I should look out for will be really helpful.

I just finished a big jury trial with a senior partner (SP). There were co-parties w/separate counsel. SP mentally checked out, to the point that co-counsel was asking what SP was doing/if SP was okay. I ended up handling most everything. SP did a few parts but went rogue and did things that were offensive/risky/bad for client. It became clear that SP is not performing like SP used to and may be a liability. Do I tell someone at my firm? Don’t want to offend SP or cause drama, but I’m concerned.
