An army of Fordham 164s are lying in wait for pissy associates to declare that this, as opposed to any part of the previous seven years, is the last straw.
NY to 190 jobs for Fordham students.

Call me crazy but does the lack of bonus announcement mean there's some real talking going on amongst partners regarding next year's associate comp?

No firms bumped bonuses because they're afraid they'll have to match 190 this year.
NYC to 190 confirmed.

Those calculators are so dumb.
It doesn't include taxes, and it basically assumes you spend literally 100% of your money in Manhattan on rent and $15 paninis.

Now there's a charge.
Just kidding ... it's still FREE!
