I love this exchange on Greedy LA:
"If my LA-based firm doesn't match, I'm switching. I'd even move to the Bay Area, where STB and S&C are recruiting associates. 15K more per year in base pay makes it worthwhile."
First response:
"The likelihood of LA shops matching the additional bumps of the NYC firms which have just raised is small, given the length of time it took them to get to $135k.
Please feel free to drop me a line at lalawinfo@yahoo.com to discuss further.
I work with the Southern and Northern California offices of the top NY firms, and I have placed satisfied associates into their practices, including Sullivan and Skadden."
Well, here's hoping the raises will spread, at least.
