不知道这几个所会不会被逼到裁员的地步呢?好多所都开始第二轮裁员了,这几个暂时
都没动静,但是好像受金融危机的影响也很大阿. 尤其是S&C和DPW,好像如果没有去年年底Bailout的活,profits恐怕降的更厉害
感觉WallStreet这次彻底不行了,好像Citigroup有要倒闭的危险了

Actually I have more respect for CWM and hope S&C and DPW will follow CWM
rather than Skadden. Given the state of the economy, every firm should be
more prudent and more conservative. If your clients are slashing their
bounues by 50% and having massive lay-offs, you should pay less bonuses, too
.
I think the economy will certainly get worse in 2009 and 0 bonus will
probably not be the worse scenario. These firms might be forced to lay off

干活多拿钱少的白宫雇员
http://view.163.com/special/reviews/whitehousestaff0703.html
白宫雇员的工资制度堪称美国行政机构的缩影,公众可以从白宫的工资制度中管窥美国
的公务员制度。
六十秒读懂专题
白宫雇员的工资须纳入政府预算,经国会批准;白宫雇员薪资透明度高,白宫会主动向
公众公布雇员薪资;总统给雇员涨薪,到下一任总统才可执行,避免了不合理涨薪;和
私营企业同工种雇员相比,白宫雇员的薪资水平明显较低;2009年起,白宫雇员平均工
资累积增长只有3%,赶不上10%的累积通货膨胀率,近百名白宫高级雇员5年内从未享受

就在美国和中国的代表团在华盛顿就两国日趋紧张的经贸关系举行谈判之际,这两个世
界最大经济体8月23日给对方价值160亿美元商品加征25%关税的措施如期而至。尽管双
方都表示,在美中贸易争端僵持两个多月后重启谈判是一个积极的迹象,但对是否能够
取得突破均不抱期待值。从迹象上看,未来仍充满不确定性,美中贸易冲突升级成全面
贸易战的风险依存,双方都认为,这场较量对彼此均具有战略意义,而对方将是在较量
中首先“眨眼”的一方。
在美国对价值160亿美元中国商品25%的关税正式开征后,中国商务部发言人表示,美国

白宫的分歧还是谈判策略
金融时报引述一名中国政府官员在私谈中的话报道说,中国政府认为,川普政府接连的

新闻来源: 联合新闻 于 2018-09-15
消息人士说,对川普总统前竞选主席马纳福的调查,发现前欧巴马白宫律师克瑞格(
Greg Craig)可能没有遵照规定登记为外国代理人,而纽约联邦检察官正考虑是否对克
瑞格提出刑事起诉。
消息人士说,检方也考虑对势力强大的世达律师事务所(Skadden、Arps、Slate、
Meagher & Flom)采取行动,因为克瑞格当时是其合伙人(电视剧)。
克瑞格今年4月离开世达,而他的律师宣称,根据外国代理人登记法(FARA),他不
需办理登记。
CNN上个月报导,有关克瑞格和世达的调查是独立检察官穆勒今年稍早转移给纽约
联邦检察官的。
对克瑞格和世达采取任何司法行动都非同小可,因为克瑞格地位显赫,而世达是美
国规模最大、最有威望的律师事务所之一。
克瑞格和世达受到的调查与马纳福被控案件密切相关,而穆勒14日对马纳福提出的
起诉文件,透露世达参与的详情。
有关文件说,2012年马纳福为当时的乌克兰总统亚努科维奇和乌克兰司法部找了一
家律师事务所,对曾任乌克兰总理的亚努科维奇政敌季莫申科受到的审判提出报告。
这家律师事务所就是世达,而在报告正式公... 阅读全帖

困境与竞争
犹太人于二战前后大量涌入美国到底面临怎样的困境?歧视。客观上说,当时犹太人在
美国读书和就业上面临的困境要超过今天在美的中国人。即便如此,他们在濒临绝境时
所迸发出的能量足以让世人瞠目,最终所取得的成就也足以让世人汗颜。

比较当时的犹太人和今天的中国人,相同点是都会在残酷的现实面前妥协,放弃一些过

如果你想拿到14万美元年薪,数钱数到手发软,那么建议你阅读一下这份调查报告。
美国在线招聘网站Glassdoor日前发布了一份最新的报告,揭露了美国员工工资最高的
15家公司,其中当然包括若干我们熟悉的科技、资讯和法律行业的巨头。
Glassdoor公司的首席经济师Andrew Chamberlain博士解释说,这些公司很舍得给员工
发薪水的原因,大多是缘于高水平人才的短缺和行业的高门槛,尤其是对于科技公司来
说,对软件工程师、数据库管理人员以及数据分析师井喷一般的需求,远远超过了公司
实际能招募到的高水平人才的数量。
另一方面,就法律和咨询行业而言,高薪往往是映证了经济学家们说的“准入门槛过高
”。该行业要求从业者的专业知识达到相当高的水平,这也便是为什么大多数的客户会
选择在数十年的时间里“忠心跟随”唯一的律师或咨询师。
这份报告里选择用薪酬中值来更加客观的反应公司的薪酬水准。
Chamberlain博士说:“更加普遍的现象是,公司内的关键人物拿的令人艳羡的超高薪
水,往往会有失公平的拉高薪酬的平均值,不能反应出真实客观水平,所以我们没有选
用平均薪酬作为主要参照,而是选择了薪酬中... 阅读全帖

Plenty of in-house jobs around, less pay but much better lifestyle. Some of
them switch career midway to become an investment banker, a bus dev director,
a marketing VP etc. All kinds of stuff.

你说的那个时候是IT黄金期,什么阿猫阿狗律师都能做IP,因为供不应求。3年时间恍如
隔世,呵呵。那时当然不计较背景,学历什么的,只要考了bar,多个人手多收billing。
当时能留下的除非已经拿了绿卡,现在都没什么选择要不给layoff,要不回国。
中国人在美国,真正要有自己的声音,一定要进入商业、金融、法律、媒体、政治。要不
然,收入高,教育高,最后还是为他人做嫁衣裳。中国也没什么好靠的,总不见得把这里
几十万中国人的希望都寄托在老远的一个发展中国家上。大家关心的agenda根本不同。

I heard from a friend that for class 2005, one Chinese student received an
offer from Sullivan Cromwell, one from Simpson Thatcher, (and one from Skadden
Arps--but my memory is kinda blurred about this one)--both from the same top
14 school. One Chinese student (of class 2006, with a joint degree from the
b-school) in the same law school received an offer from a NY firm ranked
around 80 something.

什么叫法律界的博士学位?美国法学院最高的学位是JSD,虽然没有多少人读,但这的确
是个事实,而且很多法学院也有不少教授是读了JSD的。
不知道“LLM再法律界没有地位”这个结论是怎么得出来的。你去查查看有多少美国所在
亚太地区的合伙人是LLM毕业的(SKADDEN,SULLIVAN都是例子)。
对于在国外没有读过法律的人来说(美国人和在这里读其他专业的学生),JD就是读LLM
的前提。有多少美国人读LLM是一个问题,JD和LLM的关系是另外一个关系,不要混淆。

I am reading "Skadden: Power, Money, and the Rise of a Legal Empire"
these days. Recommend it to anyone who is interested in how a law
firm operates, and the culture of a BigLaw embodies.

I know Cravath has a lock-step salary scale, and a senior associate can make
more than half a million.
Chances of making partner at firms like Skadden is near zero. One can't
make partner by working his butt off, there are thousands of fresh 23 yr old
law students who can always bill more and sleep less. They only make you a
partner when you can draw clients like other big wigs do, and when you are
ready to show them the fingure and walk out.
But if one has his own book of biz, he probably

I have the same question. Not sure whether getting v10 offers is a blessing
or a curse. It is quite a scary thought to picture myself slaving away the
next couple of years competing with gun-hos who aspire to bill 3000+ hours a
year. And no, the bonus is not any better unless you are at WLRK.
My biggest concern is the prospect of making partners at firms like DPW,
Skadden, STB, Cleary, etc. Perusing their websites reveals very few
partners who had college education in China. Anyone here car

This is really surprising. It looks like Cravath is trying to force its mid
-level associates to leave the firm.
It will be interesting to see how S&C, DPW dole out their bonuses this year.
I bet they won't be great, either. These elite firms are among the
hardest hit.

Funny they even imply 2009 may pay $0 bonus. Good luck keeping their

Simpson Thatcher matched Cravath. No surprise. DPW to follow suit.

One analysis is that this is intentionally designed to force out associates.
Sort of make sense - it's not like they can't match financially, though
they never paid above market either. Especially suspicious is their hint
that the next year might be worse - I mean why do you have to say this other
than for the reason of wanting people to quit voluntarily?
What do you think about this theory?
Also I'm a little surprised when you said that these elite firms are hit the
hardest. Could you elaborate

我的理解是
这些elite firms最赚钱的业务来自于投行,现在投行已经不行了,连GS, MS都转了
bank holding了,而且裁员很多,以后他们利润下降是肯定的,那连锁反应就是elite
firms收入也会少。
另一个就是银行钱少了,credit market freeze, 没法作大的M&A, IPO了,bail out
work虽然可以补充一下,但是毕竟没有一个 quarter 好几个IPO, M&A赚钱。
这几个elite firms很依赖financial service industry,所以受影响会很大

single digit PPP decline is still in the noise.
double digital decline, especially those above 20%, will likely result in
lay-offs, because laying off low-margin associates is the quickest way to
jack up profit for the partners.

it's not which firm laid off how many people.
the real question is whether the boss of your group is still making rain,
and, if not, which group in which firm has work.
