V30 Firm Didn't Raise Pay for Summers?

Post by Anonymous User » Sat Mar 16, 2019 12:41 pm

I will be summering at the satellite office of a V30 firm. In the on boarding material I was sent, there was a reference to a weekly pay rate based on the old 180k 1st year salary ($3,461 a week) and not the new 190k salary ($3,653). I know the firm matched the market last summer, and the ATL post announcing the raise includes a screenshot of an email from firm management saying the summers were included in the match. Was reference to the old pay rate just an old form that needs to be updated, or is my firm being sneaky in trying to save a few hundred grand this summer? Obviously, I don't think it would be prudent or opropriate for me to ask someone at the firm about this...

You should look up the firm online (nalp, vault, etc) and try to see if the firm has published its summer salary. My firm says the summer salary on those sites. If those sites say the 190 scale, then it's probably a mistake.

Did they raise to $190 in the satellite office too?

All offices matched the market which is reflected on vault. Increase to summer pay is not reflected on vault.
