We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.
Therefore, in using the site, you must agree to do your best to uphold these community guidelines.
Note that what you find here is written and moderated by anonymous people on the internet.
Therefore everything you read here is very likely unverified, rumour, speculation and/or downright false.
In continuing to read anything here, you must therefore agree not to take anything you read here as factual and that you will exercise due caution, diligence and common sense before acting on any information you may come across here.
You also agree to report any inaccurate or malicious comments with the buttons. Moderators take action within 24 hours, as required and appropriate under law.
Our full terms and conditions apply too.
Do you solemnly agree to all of the above?
Now, does no change in the annual meeting imply that this year's pay will also be 15.6 + 1.5? Probably. But is there any means of confirming that before we get our offer letters? Not really. Plus, they might just choose to similarly keep us in the dark about bonus and only out the 15.6 on our offer letter while giving it at the last minute, so who knows.
So these are the possible combinations, but there's no doubt that 17.1 or 17.9 purely as fixed are BS figures.
