Comment from : @WannaBeliever

this reminds me how thankful I am not to be an american
Comment from : @fofopads4450

Exactly how a lawyer would present itbrThe real question is who is paying for all of that and what is the endgame of making it so expensive?
Comment from : @Privacy_menorykee

Just call it what it is Exploitation
Comment from : @paradoxparty

Very few first year attorneys, even in big law, bill 2400 hours a year, and no single biglaw firm has that as the bonus target
Comment from : @dathunderman4

This is very good as I want to be a lawyer
Comment from : @Kirbyagenda189

many people work 60 or more hours a week at 2 jobs just to make 50k So cry me a river that these new lawyers will work very hard and long hours
Comment from : @johndunn6917

Commute from NEw Jersey Problem solved
Comment from : @theoeguia3302

How much is law school per year these days? 70k and above? Back when I was in school, it was about 35k, and first year associates made 120k
Comment from : @1utube01

Im very happy at my 40 hours practicing real estate law Make people happy and my contemporaries that work 80 hour weeks have all burnt out and left the profession Work life balance is important
Comment from : @cscs88

Years ago my friend worked for cravath for several years, but not as lawyerbrbrAfter she was out a few times because of her leg disability, since 2 years old, they let her go My friend could have sued but she chose to move on
Comment from : @arfriedman4577

YeahI'm happy to stick with my 40 hour a week aerospace engineer job that pays about half that And I don't have to live in NYC
Comment from : @bddb9239

2400/52 about 46 hrs brbrSo maybe 50 based on your statement brbrBut we all know you got to work nonstop to survive NYC for sure
Comment from : @chrisdavis6264

I don't think this is true in South Africa
Comment from : @VCkhorommbi

Comment from : @paul995

So weekends unincluded, u gotta work a 9-9 job to meet that 60 hour quota
Comment from : @linrayzou5952

Oh no, 60 hours a week😱 <- the sarcastic reaction of all working class people
Comment from : @KindredKaye

Great! With $200K, you will be able to afford a 1000sqf apartment with 9 other roommates!
Comment from : @clickbaitey8244

60 hours a week… that’s a joke
Comment from : @Paul-c7e6c

I live in a country with a population of 554 million people, this country has a 175 trillion dollar sovereign wealth fund
Comment from : @murdoc296

Dog I already do 60 hours a week and I make 60 to maybe $62,000 a year before taxes what the f*** am I doing
Comment from : @tuckemmons

Born and raised in NYC, $200k is a lot in NYC most people live of WAY less with more works and more mouths to feed If they kept their debt or under 100k and live in a modest apartment They will have more than enough to save for their future and have LOTS of fun
Comment from : @1435queen

I’ve worked 60 hours a week for as little as $15/hour Must be hard on em
Comment from : @Lladmdub2107

You could not pay me enough to work 60h a week consistently One or two times a year when schedules are close? Sure Every week? HAHA NO!
Comment from : @noneofyourbusiness3288

So on the high end an average of 64 an hour
Comment from : @ryanwhitney667

200k? That's almost a year of rent in New York!
Comment from : @ItRemindMeOfHome

Newsflash Most people work 50-60 hours per week Spending $300k for law school for 3 years to make $400k over the next two years, is pretty good
Comment from : @Galworld761

First year associates will be expected to bill 974 hours per week
Comment from : @cbjueueiwyru7472

Do they need to live in NYC? I mean they’d save a lot by commuting from NJ but it’d save far more of their income
Comment from : @tedrow70

Hey Ferb, I know what we’re gonna do today
Comment from : @Minimish28

60 hours per week is 10 hours for 6 days a week I understand that’s long, but that sounds shorter than what my lawyer friends told me
Comment from : @jackjia8773

Laughs in trucker hours
Comment from : @gavitronian9477

10h a day is avrage day tf you cry about
Comment from : @fleamarketjunk2141

Dude I've been working 2 jobs 40 hours each for 5 years and have been happy break 80kbrbrI don't sympathize with lawyers
Comment from : @gamedirection6826

Basically earning the same as a Family Physician Quite impressive 👏🏾
Comment from : @thecommentor6870

That’s exactly what scotus judges make…no wonder we aren’t getting the best
Comment from : @sclaw954

😂 60 hours a week Physicians laughing
Comment from : @flockofone9214

Plus how much do they have to pay back in student loans
Comment from : @charlesravenscraft8543

💙❤️
Comment from : @Rainbowofthefallen

And most likely a lot of student debt
Comment from : @TotheSoundOfThunderingEngines

Don't forget how much they owe in student loan debt
Comment from : @DevoutSkeptic

LegalEagle is so rich for so long that he's forgotten not every lawyer will automatically move into a multi million dollar residence
Comment from : @jabloneynophony1875

Hope investment bank IT follows suit❤❤❤
Comment from : @AtheistAI

Lot of hours…amazing pay… Sounds like a dream!brbrThink of all those people in NY making $50k a year with overtimebrbrThey earned it Law school isn’t cheap or easy
Comment from : @MissPYT78

It's September 12th, I am a teacher and I have already officially clocked 114 hrs this month Clocked, so not counting the work from home Or during the holidays Yes we work during our holidays Disclaimer: I am not paid 200 000, I do have two Masters degrees and a handful of other qualifications Welcome to the real world
Comment from : @Safinitzine

To my understanding, studies actually seem to show that white-collar jobs are harder and more exhausting than blue-collar jobs
Comment from : @MV-un3jt

And doctors fresh out of med school make 65K (about 75k in NYC) doing 80 hours/week for minimum 3 years I'd prefer the lawyer's work schedule and pay
Comment from : @KeenerCA

The standard first year rate is $225,000 (plus bonuses, depending on the firm) brAt least that's what I've been offered (from 2 firms)
Comment from : @jewii3824

Disgusting
Comment from : @NokandFen

I’m shocked lawyers work so much when atleast for me I’ve never heard of someone I know getting legal council
Comment from : @IL_Bgentyl

Downside being you won’t be alive for those years
Comment from : @Mouradin1224

Long hours and presumably tons of student debt to pay… Great salary but it’s justified!
Comment from : @annazully2680

lol 60 hours is a regular office job They work a lot longer hours and dedicate their personal time to company brand building
Comment from : @-TS-

Comment from : @idk-ol2it

More money more problems
Comment from : @ALPHABARN

I work 70 hours a week for 55k Can i swap with one of them?
Comment from : @Hugearms9

Meanwhile medical residents work over the 80 hour cap and get $60,000 a year
Comment from : @Rockrockyrockrock

The possibility of 60-hour work weeks is one reason i didn't try to get a law degree
Comment from : @pharynx007

"here's how this works"brIt's called inflation my guy
Comment from : @razzendahcuben

They also have to pay for the loans from law school, of course Not cheap
Comment from : @ethanrappolt6528

I make 250 K / year… but I’m 41 At least, I don’t work 60 hours a week and 100 frombrHome :)
Comment from : @justinianbyzantium3765

For a single person, living in a bottom of the barrel low rent apartment in new york and spending very reservedly on food, they still only making about $50/hr Of course it's salary, so the 60hr/week is actually more realistically going to be 80hrs to 100hrs per week without any OTbrbrThat's nothing for what the expectation of those lawfirms on their employees
Comment from : @tprime2702

My friend started law with a 6 figure salary, but it doesn't mean much when you have over $100k in student debt to pay off
Comment from : @suchnothing

60 hours weeks is standard All lawyers are exploited the same way at least this guys are making money Is amazing how lawyers have complete contempt of labour laws
Comment from : @alejandrogiha7583

60 hours per week isn't bad, as long as you're being paid accordinglybrI've worked far longer hours, and for months, to well over a year, and I didn't mind, because the money was right, but everyone is different, so
Comment from : @alltheworldsastage4785

"asks for 5 years in experince"
Comment from : @LinkoLankao

Not to mention how much of that is gonna go straight to paying off their student loans
Comment from : @maddilynpeterson4180

why would anyone become a lawyer when you can be a banker lol
Comment from : @dolphin4788

I suspect that's likely around what's needed to just live there though, so it might sound high to many but is what the New York Market has resulted in
Comment from : @aurinator

60h is pretty standard in academia, if not a low number, and almost none of those people make that and they do the research which a lot of medical or psychological treatments are based on etc but at least I don't have to live in the US 😂
Comment from : @raffa4456

Studying law is not as hard as medicine but it’s extremely close but they get paid way less
Comment from : @xondeez757

"How about I take only $100,000, and I work only 20 hours a week?"
Comment from : @itskarl7575

Sounds great With that kind of money, they can get a 0005 m² apartment in New York City in no time
Comment from : @turtledog5050

These magic circle firm cravat , milbank , kirkland, allen ovary, white and case McDermott are worse than worst don't ever work there
