[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s harder to leave than you think. I spent 10 years in biglaw as a litigator. I never got offered a single job in-house or in Fed gov despite applying widely. I moved firms a couple times just trying to find more peace but it was just as bad, even when I did ultimately accept a pay cut. One reason I couldn’t get an in-house offer is I couldn’t move to where clients are because of DH’s job which pretty much only exists in DC. [/quote] This. It’s not that easy to get a job like yours. I’d be willing to bet your nonprofits fundraising department relies heavily on donations from big law firms….so these big law lawyers are subsidizing your salary….[/quote] NP and doubtful. Corporate donors, sure, but I don't think biglaw firms are bastions of charitable giving. [/quote]
