Heard that Jones Day doesn't pay bonuses to associates. Do they pay some other type of bonuses? Are those similar to market bonuses? How does the firm stay competitive if other firms are paying end of year bonuses?

As the hiring partner once put it, "If you think we're systematically underpaying our associates do you think we'd have any associates?" Top performers can earn $20-50k base above market.

Scalia began his legal career at Jones, Day, Cockley and Reavis in Cleveland, Ohio, where he worked from 1961 to 1967.[10] He was highly regarded at Jones Day and would most likely have made partner, but later stated he had long intended to teach.[12]

They are somewhere around the 50th choice firm in New York. However, they pay relatively well and have dominate market positions in other places and JD DC is/was a top place for SCOTUS clerks.

This gentleman is mistaken. They pay NY scale in NY and below NY scale in other localities. Of course, sub-NY scale is still above market in towns like Columbus. http://www.nalpdirectory.com

Starting in the third year they pay above market salaries, often well above market. But only to high achievers. If you make market salary you are a below average associate. Eventually you will get upset and leave.
