[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]BIG law attorneys -- what do staff attorneys do? Are they associates who aren't on a partner track? TIA, I've only worked in the government and am looking at positions with private firms. [/quote] The last thing you want to be is a staff attorney. They primarily do document review (e-discovery) work. They get zero respect in their firms and are the first to be let go when things get slow. They are glorified paralegals. They are definitely not associates who are not on partnership track – they are much lower than that on the totem pole. It’s a terrible job and you don’t want it.[/quote] This is not always true. (Mostly yes, but not always.) What is the practice area, OP? [/quote]
