[quote=Anonymous]I left a big law firm to go to a Fed legal job - it was really bad in terms of 70% pay cut (so, 30% of my previous pay) but with pressure to work the same workload. Now, nobody would have fired me for taking longer to complete things / respond, but the pressure was still a constant. I left after less than a year. I do think if I had stayed longer, I just would have prioritized what I thought was most important, and let other things drag on because I didn't have "time".... But I am much happier now, with an in-house company job that pays more than the fed gov job but is 45-50 hours/week. Most importantly, my internal clients are happy with my response time - the workload is actually 45-50 hours/week (not 120 hours/week of requests but you only "have" to work 40).[/quote]
