"Sup Brady! It's great hearing from you. Hope chi-town is treating you well. But yeah, HBS just started, still going through orientation. Man, I'm having a f*cking blast so far. Tons of parties, people getting blasted every night. Of course once classes start, we will calm down just a little bit. Lol. But i've been going out to tons of spots in boston and meeting chicks left and right. You're right about the H-bomb. It's definitely powerful!

Half of my classmates are in relationships, but it's not going to last past black october. People are hooking up like rabbits already, and any long-distance relationship will not last. I have my eye on a few chicks; we'll see what unfolds.

You should join us for a trip once you're done with applications. We already have plans to go to brazil, vegas, miami, carribbean, europe. Pretty much wherever we want.

Anyways, gotta go. Let's keep in touch, and let me know if you need any help on mba essays. Best of luck, brah."

I turned down a job there 4 years ago and know a few in-Housemos there and it sounds terrible. They have been very well compensated for the last 4 years but that’s mostly because the stock has appreciated like crazy. Bettiing on that going forward is very uncertain.

Well compensated meaning if you get a 200k base and a 50k stock bonus and when the stock bonus vests 3 years later the stock has quadrupled it turns out you made 400k. But you could have just as easily made 250k. Or less.

are you fucking kidding me? have you ever even looked at the amazon site? they have years of my purchase history and can't even put shit that I actually want to buy on the first page.

this fucking thing was at the very top of the page when I logged in this morning. I have never in the 10 or so years I've been buying shit from them ever bought or even looked at something that would suggest I want to buy 30 comic book movies on blu ray. I don't even own a blue ray player.

also this item was "inspired by my shopping trends" i.e. - I bought a new grill cover a few months ago. Their complex algorithms and state of the art data mining techniques clearly figured out that since I purchased a grill cover that I must also be looking for a new grill. you know, because people go out a buy a cover before buying the actual grill all the fucking time. real geniuses they have over there.

The new hires in the last few years have had their packages adjusted to account for the higher stock price, so they’re not benefiting like the people who’ve had a lot of stock vest in the last few years, but I’d argue it’s still worth it since you have no idea how high stock price can go.

Lawyer wise, it’s not more inhumane than biglaw. They’re not any worse than Netflix and only slightly worse than Hulu or other places that pay comparably. Whatever, you can always leave for something more humane and lower paying if you want once your stock vests. Resume value is worth something.

the comp for senior associate level lawyers is supposed to be around $225-250K all in. The stock went crazy so people who had that comp pegged to prices 4-5 years ago made a killing.

If you join now you will be offered 3 shares of RSU plus a base of $150K.

My firm did a lot of work for amazon and I could have gone in House there. The stories are horrendous. I have been on the other end of multiple calls where I have literally heard grown adults break down in tears from feeling so overwhelmed from their workload. Their in house folks make biglaw look like a cakewalk by comparison.
