i have a really good offer at a boutique and am almost sure to get an offer from a pretty good midlaw firm. may get one from a lower-end biglaw firm too. my practice area (traditional labor) is in high demand rn.

i'm not sure what this shit is going to look like over the next few years though.

i might just stay at my current shitty midlaw firm and collect $. i'll make around 550k next year if i stay, which is more than the other places will pay me. but this place slighted me.

anyway, i'm sure the lol firm market is about to shit the bed.

Yes but you can’t put a price on revenge. Actually the boutique offer is arguably better than my current job. 475 base and a bonus structure that would have resulted in me making nearly 600 with my originations this year. Not equity, but everyone there makes equity.

The other midlaw place would be better in the long run. Much better office footprint for traditional labor. They and the biglaw firm also have established labor practices, which is appealing. I’m the whole deal at my firm, which is good in a sense but also blows.

We seem to be in a phase where the battles and jockeying for position at the top end is prolonged by the market doing so well even though the real economy has issues. 95+% of US employers of over 1000 people have a cohort of boomer senior execs who they are slowly pushing out, and that process will need to be further along and/or rates have to fall and/or M&A and IPOs need to pick up and then hiring below VP levels will get good again. RTO has been another weird prolonging item ie 22-50 year olds are still sorting according to RTO preference and meanwhile boomers are using RTO to prolong their departures.

The main problem is lack of M&A and exit events for senior management with no obvious sign that it will pickup. When it’s all models and bottles at the top and coming fast and furious then senior management doesn’t really care about growing costs because they can jump ship whenever they feel like it. But now everyone is kind of stuck with what they have and they need to be careful to preserve and grow profitability otherwise they’re out on their asses before they can fully participate in the next liquidity event. The funny thing is that this seems to have very little to do with whether it makes sense to hire or not. Kind of a weird market dynamic .

Yes, but also the way things have been writ large since 20 years ago, basically post dotcom crash and Sarbanes Oxley. Ironically Trump winning and sending Lina Khan packing will likely be the biggest factor in pushing boomers out faster while also growing inequality and wiping out gains by the poors via populism.

its greedy boomers. you are 100% correct

and interest rates/multiples are not going low anytime soon but management/shareholders dont want to accept that. so many of my clients are not doing anything to risk growth/profit, its like an airplane just circling an airport hoping for a good time to land. its stupid and nonsense.

oh and my clients hire me because im a fucking editda addback since my work is structural/restructuring in nature. ljl. but these same clients cant/wont hire me full time to do it (at a cheaper rate) cuz they dont want to risk my cost being not an addback.

all fruad

It’s very much does. Making the jump from “only talks to other nerds” roles to “has to explain what nerds are doing to normies” roles is the coder equivalent of making partner.

This is below the Mag 7 top end comp for Senior Counsel at this point. So if you aren’t getting a title bump and/or a significant resume builder role or logo on your resume, then you wouldn’t switch for just slightly more comp if you’re secure where you are, particularly if you also survived layoffs and came away with more responsibility and are set up for a promotion. And obvs they are reluctant to hire straight out of biglaw into these roles given how bitchy and weak this cohort of mid-level associates has proven to be over the last 5 years and when the expectations internally is that the new hire won’t need a ton of handholding/retraining but many/most biglawyers do in their first inhouse jobs.

several reasons

1. Employees know the opening exists. It removes leverage for them to demand more pay knowing that the job is online and getting 500 applications.

2. It keeps a list of people in case there is a need (ie someone quits or demands a nice raise). They want to be able to fill that role cheaply quickly

3. HR needs something to do without all the hiring. So they are valuable by doing #1 and #2

4. Less common, but some firms will repost but drop the salary amounts and see what change in applications that gets. If they can get decent people at below their current rates, they will let some go and replace them with cheaper. But still no new job created.

Some just re-list until they hire and it can take 1-2 months to onboard. So they do hire someone for the role, they just dont hire someone every time they re-list. And they do that in part because sometimes the candidate offered walks. We just had that happen and had to re-list the role.
