if you're just in it for a paycheck, ok with knowing you're not as successful as your peers (and the people that came after you, and after them, and so on) that made partner, and dgaf anymore, this is a cr move. the work and job generally just gets easier every time you do this

Thinking about leaving in house to do this again. Do firms just let you use AI to do everything now but still bill like you didn’t?

there are all sorts of rules, which is why you have to lateral and give up a few class years every now and then. i'm a sixth year but i've been practicing for 17 years

What if I topped out as a 4th year in 2021 and haven’t really worked for more than a couple weeks at a time since then (I have a $300k inhouse sinecure)? Could I go back to being a 2nd year associate in a specialty practice like biglaw T&E or ERISA?
