How much do Junior Partners at big4 make? Is it comparable to their peers who are Senior Assocs at intl firms, after taking into account the cut of the billings that they get?

~$250k all in for newly minted junior partners at Big 4

What are some of the legendary batches? For example there was the famous jessup moot team comprising Davinder Singh, Chelva Rajah, Steven Chong and Jimmy Yim. Any other notable batches.

I had been an emotional support dog for a lawyer (she is my senior) in my firm. basically it is her trauma dumping on me for hours every week (ask me to listen to her personal problems, come to get her when she gets depressed over ridiculous relationship, stay back to comfort her) to the point I got fed up. this is out of my job scope.

after I left I gradually cut off contact and straightaway ghosted her. now I am having second thoughts -seniors with similar experiences - do you guys think it is the right move?

All in - meaning with bonus? Had impression it was about 17K/ month - so your number is 14 months worth, meaning 2 months bonus only?

Problem with local lawyers is they like to tell you their salary amounts which are frontloaded with bonus. $17k per month is actually front loaded bonus already.

If you don’t front load it, the base salary is more like $13-$14k per month.
