Currently working as a corporate associate at one of the top biglaw firms in NY. Looking to lateral to Orlando and wondering what the top shops are paying. Thinking H&K, GT, Foley, Akerman, etc. Thanks!

H&K
Salary: Old DPW scale (starts at $205k), lockstep. Orlando doesn't get the recent match
Bonus: Complete blackbox
Foley
Salary: Old DPW scale through year 3 (starts at $202.5k), then "close to" old DPW scale for the rest of the payscale (people online tend to say that it's around $20k off each year, but I don't have any firsthand knowledge). Pays the same in every market
Bonus: Blackbox with presumed minimums based on hours (this info is from NALP)
2000 hours = no less than 10% of base salary
2200 hours = no less than 20% of base salary
BakerHostetler
Salary: Starts at $175k (complete blackbox afterward)
Bonus: Complete blackbox
GT
Salary: Varies by geographic market (haven't found anything online about non-Miami Florida cities), blackbox afterward
Bonus: Complete blackbox
Akerman
Salary: Complete blackbox
Bonus: Complete blackbox
I recommend checking Fishbowl, too: there tends to be decent market-specific salary discussion there. There's a Florida Law bowl that can probably help.
ETA BakerHostetler and some more details.
