Hi {{first_name}},
Here's this week's Saxa Sidebar, with new associate openings across the AmLaw firms.
As we enter this time of the year, I get a lot of questions on timing with regards to bonus. At this point in the year, most firms will have you wait until after your bonus to start, or otherwise make you whole if they intend to bring you in quickly. The typical process is 4-6 weeks at minimum, which puts right in front of the holiday season. So if you’re thinking about a move, but waiting until next year, you can still wait out your bonus and get active in recruiting without competing with the January rush.
Here's what's new this week:
