Date: November 29th, 2006 5:50 PM Author: razzle kitchen yea--although new york has always been behind these markets in real compensation it looks like the gap in nominal compensation is narrowly significantly as well.
the recent round of pay raises brought lots of firms in secondary markets up to 125K from 100-115k and to 135K in others. |

not at all. you merely transform the work that the partners bring in into money. and the market has decided that bringing the work in counts for a lot more than trudging through it. |
|
Date: November 29th, 2006 9:00 PM Author: razzle kitchen blah blah blah the market blah blah. we are perfectly aware of the market conditions that dictate associate salaries--that doesn't make them fair.
nor does it mean that people shouldnt be disappointed and complain. This was a great year for many firms, so there's no reason associates shouldn't complain about partners not sticking to their "revenue sharing" propaganda. |

If it was fake though, it's the best fake attempt ever. Posts were made by distinct Milbank IPs. |

I'm impressed. Only way I found the old thread was by doing a google search for [name of the recruiter] milbank and the February thread popped up. I was trying to see if this person was actually the recruiter.
I only wish you had waited a bit longer to post the truth so there would be more outrage. |
