Should I never leave my 10-4pm, limited stress, 175K job?
Poast new message in this thread
Date: April 23rd, 2018 6:21 PM Author: Razzle space I'm never going to maximize hours to pay to stress like this ever again, right? In-house, no billables.
More stress than BIGFED but way less than normal law jobs. Half the year I never do more than 2-3 hours a day. Other half the year it's maybe 3 hours a day, if that, with the occasional travel needed, but that's only 3-4x a year.
More pay than BIGFED but less than some of the better in-house jobs.
Better hours than in-house jobs and similar to, or better than, BIGFED.
WFH 2 days a week
Currently I am the senior attorney in my department, overseeing 2 others. Plan to burrow into this and then try to jump into a more business role in the future if I want to make more. |
