[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s really disheartening. T10 law school, 20 years experience in Big Law, in-house and small law. Can’t seem to break out of the $300’s (unless I go back to Big Law which I’m not doing.)[/quote] Why is this disheartening? This is simple math. Legal is a cost center everywhere other than law firms, so of course you have to go to a law firm for the big money. [/quote] Nah. Lots of senior (but not highest level) in house jobs make 500-700k with the bonus. Many GC’s clear $1M. [/quote] Agree. With RSUs and bonuses, even lawyers reporting to the GC are making over 1 mil. at some local companies. Of course, some have to hold onto the stock, so it's not like the cash is in the bank, able to be spent. But still, it seems a more long term lucrative path with less work than most law firms.[/quote]
