Exit options for tax?
First year associate here. At my firm, all the junior associates are in a general pool and are free to do whatever they want before choosing a practice area in the third year. I'm pretty interested in tax, but there's seems to be no exit options. I'm not sure I want to spend my career at biglaw. Any advice would appreciated.

Re: Exit options for tax?
Why do you think there are no exit options? In general, I think tax has great exit options. You have all the in-house options of corporate, but you also have much more robust government options on top of that. The IRS is pretty desperate for talent these days (then there's Treasury, DOJ Tax, and SALT agencies). Plus, you have Big4 as an option (may be similar to biglaw, but often better geographic flexibility and may be a more attractive option for some at the senior levels). I went biglaw tax to in-house and has multiple options to do so.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Thu Nov 09, 2023 12:49 amFirst year associate here.
