[quote=Anonymous]I have friends who I think are genuinely present dads who are in-house, but zero who are in big law. FWIW I am an SES government lawyer who is probably about 10 years older than you. I make over $200K now. I would choose my job over my old big law job 10 times out of 10. Even at my busiest work times, I will be at the thing I told my kids I’d be at; I will turn off my phone for a day if we have special plans. I could never have done that in big law. I had a partner track me down through my husband’s phone on a weekend when I didn’t answer my phone for a 10 minute period for a new “emergency” I had no reason to suspect was coming on a Sunday. No thanks.[/quote]
