It’s not 100% for everyone. Also, many tax groups have always had two year tracks. My group is almost always 2 years (give or take a couple months) and occasional 1.6 years.

CRT (career round tables) are in May, performance year end is 4/30, so promotees don’t find out until early to mid June.

like

Nothing is automatic, and CRT hasn't even happened yet. Early communications are normally for manager promotes so they have time to get their independence stuff done

Senior attorneys at v100, how common is it for attorneys who start at small firms to lateral to biglaw? Have you worked with any? Conventional wisdom is always that if you don’t start there it’s hard to “trade up”. My coworker and I just did it to two different great v30 firms, and I’m wondering if it’s really that uncommon? Just out of curiosity. We’re not special counsel with special niche skills or anything, just associates. Pitfalls to beware? Positives?

AWS vs Cloudflare BDR roles

AWS lowballed but I negotiated to match Cloudflare. Cloudflare offers more equity but AWS has a higher base.

I love Cloudflare. The people are great but it’s an engineering culture and the sales team isn’t as well shaped up and I can’t go for a promotion until at least 18 months of tenure. I am an investor in the company and think of them super highly. I’ve already got half a years SDR experience and AWS promotes quicker.

AWS has prestige but is it worth it?
