How many live transactions are senior associates / PAs working on simultaneously? What is the norm for foreign law firms?
I'm working on 6 right now. All at different stages though. Ps- I am not from a top tier firm.
Which firm dude? I'll apply ASAP. Working on 5 currently
Arre bhai number of transaction mat dekho sirf. Heavy matter hai dono, 1 ka workload 5 ke barabar.
How can you say that when you have not even worked on 5 deals simultaneously? A0s I tell you...
Seven. Sleeping & eating are designed to slow you down. I'm very happy with my boss & my life.
That sounds like constantly doing some urgent task or the other!!!! How do you manage this in long term?
You don't. You keep lateraling around till you make SA/PA, save up some money and go join one of your clients for a 30% pay cut.
Thank you for your reply Sir. I myself worked in a B&F team for about 2 years and found it unsustainable!! I thought it was just me. (2018 graduate)
I used to do two transactions a year, now we do three a week. Currently on 9 transactions, all are on fire.
Judging someone by the number of live transactions is like judging someone by the number of hours he/she put in for the board exams. Each transaction is different. Sometimes one transaction (like the Jio Platforms deal) can consume your entire bandwidth.
Nope, smaller firms are worse sometimes because they never have enough people, but always want every deal on the market, so you're paid less and working more than Tier 1 guys in M&A deals
Depends on the firm. One team firms are actually the best because they're very well aware of max bandwith.
Yes you are allowed to say. Say it and bear the consequences if any. There’s always a choice.
Am I the only tier 1 junior looking forward for the Fed to raise rates and finally bring some slowdown in this emerging/inflated economy?
