That sounds like solid comp, congrats! Can you share the industry?

- Biglaw firm, bottom quarter of AMLaw 100. Counsel position for 300K. 12 years of experience. Fully remote position.

- Niche regional law firm with 35 attys at 225K. Technically an associate but the firm doesn't publicly distinguish between associate/counsel/partner. 9 years of experience. Fully remote position.

- Smaller, more public interest-y firm with a niche with clients whose pockets aren't that deep. Two attorneys landed there. One with 5 years experience, was offered around 145K (something in the 140s, as I recall). Don't know what the second attorney is making but they were only 1.5 years out of school so I presume they are making less.

What's a public interest-y firm?

Represents people not corporations. Like a plaintiff side law firm.

For fully remote, that's a very solid offer.
