[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. Fmr senior biglaw associate reading this thread with interest. I left 2.5 years ago for an in-house role (I was a 7th year at the time).  I had years of good reviews but felt i was not in the superstar camp and didn't want to hit a wall at year 8 or 9 and have 'the talk.' But tracking my former colleagues, it seems like firms are more open than ever to keeping associates around indefinitely. Many more 11,12,13 year associates than ever before.  Also more of counsels being made than was previously the case (again, this is just at my former V10).  I sometimes wish i just road it out if i knew I had that many more years of the gravy train. Have others in biglaw noticed this shift away from strict up or out in the last 5 years or so?

To OP, sorry this happened. Agree with others you should ask for at least 3 months severance and 6 months website. What vault range is your firm?   [/quote]

What some see as a departure from “strict up or out,” others see as brutal lengthening of the partnership track.  Lol.  Admittedly the money is good.  [/quote]
