[quote=Anonymous]I went from big law to mid law and now going back to big law. I find the hours to be about the same because everyone expects 24/7. The only way I have made it work is to go part-time (60%). 60% is about 25 billables/week plus all the extras. To get this, I worked full time for a bit, went out on maternity leave and came back part time. The lateral moves have all been part time and they are harder to make unless you are in a sought after specialty. I am like PP - I leave at 5pm but then log on whenever necessary. It hurts you if you are hoping for partner track but it certainly didn't hurt my ability to get interesting work. Good luck![/quote]
