I would probably stay at OD for the bonus and try to work with attorneys in other offices that do the work you want to do.

Is the OD total comp (base + bonus) better than Littler total comp when bonus is taken into account? I understand Littler has higher base.

OD has lots of traditional labor work and not enough bodies to staff it, at least in CA. I would stay at hook up with the traditional labor shareholders in CA. Further, you would be on the fast track to shareholder if you wanted that.

Also, I believe base salary may be higher at Littler but that depends on what level you go in at. However, from everything I have heard bonuses are superior at OD than Littler.

Know I’m just being insecure, but it bothers me when my girlfriend consciously dresses super hot to get attention (we’re in long distance right now).

What is considered a “large” caseload in employment litigation? I work at a large L&E boutique law firm and handling about 14-15 active litigation cases in state/federal court or arbitration.

Not sure if that’s a typical caseload or not?

Hello, I’m an associate (almost at the one year mark) at a midsize firm on the EPL team. I did about 2 years of employment law as a clerk during school and know that’s what I want to go into. I’ve asked for more EPL work but keep catching PI cases. I second-chaired an employment trial but don’t see any EPL work for the foreseeable future and wasn’t getting as much EPL exposure as I wanted before the trial. Any advice on a lateral move to a bigger firm with a broader range of EPL work?
