Feeling like I am making so many sacrifices for work anyway, might as well go into a job where the comp progression is more rewarding.

How much yer makin

About $185k TC. Nearly all salary, my firm is very light on VC.

Best risk-adjusted comp is partner track in consulting, once you’re in consulting

Other (career) places to make a ton of cash is IB or PE

Founding/starting something obviously has the highest POTENTIAL, but risk is higher.

From my experience, attrition in IB and PE is much higher than consulting. Consulting, for most firms, is a tenure game, whereas IB and PE can cut deep. That’s my point on risk adjusted. I’m in conversations with PE firms about becoming a portco operator, and their attrition numbers are much worse than my firms

Curious if anyone else is or has been in the same boat. I started as an assistant at an entertainment law firm prior to passing the bar. Upon passing, the partner told me they would hire an assistant for me since I now became an associate. That was 1.5 years ago and I am still in the limbo of juggling my own workload + doing assistant roles for my supervisors. I have also had no increase in pay, which is a huge deal for me. Is this normal in the entertainment world? Any suggestions?
