Paul Hastings has a billable hour requirement and does not prorate bonuses for parental leave. EDIT to note that Paul Hastings gives you billable-equivalent credit for your leave, so it's as if they pro-rate your hours target to get the full bonus.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Thu Mar 03, 2022 12:19 amI work for a V50 firm that prorates year end bonuses to the number of days worked. Are there firms out there that don’t prorate bonuses? I assume firms that have no billable hour requirement don’t prorate? What about a firm with a minimum billable requirement that doesn’t prorate?
Akin Gump doesn't technically have an hours requirement although 1950 is the number for bonus purposes, but they don't prorate bonus $$ for parental leave as long as you hit the prorated bonus hours target.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Thu Mar 03, 2022 12:19 amI work for a V50 firm that prorates year end bonuses to the number of days worked.

Fried Frank also has an hours target, and does not prorate your bonus for leave as long as you hit your prorated target.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Thu Mar 03, 2022 12:19 amI work for a V50 firm that prorates year end bonuses to the number of days worked.
