2100, 2000, 1700 (maybe? Switched firms), 1900.

Nothing too crazy and I was smart about billing, if you know what I mean.

This was during ITE so things were volatile.

1st - 1400 (fired/firm dissolved)

Got second firm six months later

2nd - 2600 (annualized, 1820 actual, but paid full bonus)

3rd first half - 1200

3rd second half - 250

Fired again at beginning of 4th, which was ITE.

I constantly felt like a pure shit associate who was learning nothing and would never be able to make a career as an M&A attorney. It wasn't until I talked to enough of my law school friends and acquaintances that I realized I just picked two really shitty firms.

This. it is so dependent on the firm and even more so the department and partners you work for. Some expectations are just insane.
