Big Law

Associate

Friend makes $230K base, $75K/yr equity 4 year cliff (but with refreshers), and $35K/yr company+individual performance bonus (340K TC) working as a SWE in tech. He's in his early 30s and works around 30-35 hours a week (but is on call once a quarter, where he will work/be on standby for 50-55 hours for that week). He thinks his lifetime salary ceiling is around $500K, and is thinking of pivoting to law to break that cap (partner ambitions). Should he pivot?
