Depends on the area and what your background is and goals are.
Depends on the company and the structure of Legal. In a small department, everyone wears lots of hats, and when a new issue arises, the GC will assign it to someone who has the most experience with that issue, or the emptiest plate.
In a big department, you may be pigeonholed as the attorney who deals only with issues involving green left-handed widgets made in Portugal, and if a matter does not check all those boxes, it will be assigned to a colleague in a different place on the matrix.
for me yes, i was willing to do whatever to get in-house. but that was my goal. is that your goal?
Were you able to move out of that space later on and do something you liked more? If so how?
