[quote=Anonymous]A thought about this recurring belief that in-house jobs are the holy grail: they very well may be. They also may be just as bad as biglaw, with a much lower salary. In-house counsel jobs are cost centers. For those who were not practicing in 2008-10, in-house counsel jobs were frequently the targets of layoffs. And the terms of departure and severance are not nearly as generous for in-house jobs as they are for law firms. I'm in-house, and I lucked out with a great GC and am far happier than when I was in biglaw. But I also know my job could disappear at any time, particularly after a bad earnings report. [/quote]
