[quote=Anonymous]Like the PP, I didn't have any debt, which I know affected my options/decision. But yeah, I quit my well-paying BigLaw gig to work for the feds. Took a cut in pay by one-third (I was only a senior associate when I left, not a partner). But we adjusted to having less money, and I've been working my way (slowly) up the pay scale. I will never, ever, make in government what I was making 6 years ago when I left BigLaw. But I have never had any regrets -- I spend so much more time with my great kids and husband. I don't feel guilty when I take time for myself (to go to the gym, or see a movie with friends). And I feel better about what I do. (Some of our clients were great, but some skeezed me out.)[/quote]
