[quote=Anonymous]I am a seventh year biglaw associate with two young children and a nonlawyer husband who works normal 40-hour weeks. I always thought that I wanted to make partner, and my firm tells me that I will next year. Problem is that I hate the job. I hate dealing with clients. I hate supervising junior associates. I hate working crazy hours and rarely spending quality time with family. So I have an offer to go in house at a client. Really nice GC and attorneys. The hours are 9-5ish (I know because I work with them). The pay is decent 200k plus bonus and equity, but not the 700k+ I would be making if I stayed on as partner. I am leaning toward taking in house job. But I worked for so long to make partner that it seems insane to quit now. [/quote]
