[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An attorney, their first year at the firm, will earn less than an experienced long-term administrative assistant (someone who decades ago would have been "their secretary")[/quote] This may be true at some types of firms, but not at others. At my firm (market-paying big law), first year associates are paid $215k plus bonus, and it goes up from there. Even the longest-tenured admin assistant isn’t making that much. But it’s really only big law firms and some in-house positions that pay in that range. It’s very common for associates to take a significant pay cut when they leave a firm to go in-house. [/quote]
