Traditions matter at law firms, and few are more important than paying your associates a hell of a lot of money come bonus season. When it comes to that tradition, Irell & Manella has delivered in the past. This year is no different! This year’s bonuses are several steps above some of their competition.
Here’s the scale:
To everyone at Irell & Manella, enjoy the money! And you won’t have to wait long either — the money will be distributed on Friday. Looking forward to the weekend indeed.
We like hearing about bonuses almost as much as you enjoy spending them. As soon as your firm’s memo comes out, please email it to us (subject line: “[Firm Name] Bonus”) or text us (646-820-8477). Please include the memo if available. You can take a photo of the memo and send it via text or email if you don’t want to forward the original PDF or Word file.
And if you’d like to sign up for ATL’s Salary & Bonus Alerts, please scroll down and enter your email address in the box below this post. If you previously signed up for the bonus alerts, you don’t need to do anything. You’ll receive an email notification within minutes of each bonus announcement that we publish.
