[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think where you’re going to have a hard time checking all of your boxes, at least at first, is salary and flexibility. The places that offer the most flexibility are often the ones that pay the least. You also mentioned wanting to start at 150k and to be frank any firm starting a brand new lawyer at 150k is not going to be one known for flexibility. [/quote] DP but for some more perspective, I have a very flexible government attorney job making 150k, but it took me a decade get here. Also it can be very competitive trying to get a job (especially without veterans or some other hiring preference). The private legal sector isn’t known for being flexible out the gate, which is why people bust their butts in their 20s and 30s before having kids. You’re not going to get some sweet in house counsel gig as a new grad.[/quote]
