Only in-house folks that I know making that much are senior level attorneys managing teams. Most of my friends and former private practice colleagues at funds (primarily MFs) are around the $200 to 250k mark in Chicago and NYC.

then you have the 250-350k 9-5 in house which is the sweet spot

then you have the 4-600k in house where you have to work a lot

then you have black swan events like nutella where she gets 600k 9-4 in house, that is the dream

Paralegals: 50-60k are country 70-90k big city

Contracts Managers: 70-100k are country 90-120k big city

Counsel: 110-150 are county 140-190 big city

Sr. Counsel: 190-250 are county 200-300 big city

since we're talking megacorps, it's much more likely to be Dallas or Denver but I don't think going from a third tier city to a sixth tier city should alter the scale that much. Maybe at the lower levels but even for counsel and senior counsel they're competing for essentially the same talent pool.

Perpetuated by losers from Reed Smith or Dorsey who went inhouse 2009-2013 when there were zero bonuses and the biglaw scale still started at 160K and they are trying to make themselves feel better about not working in real biglaw and not regretting making the move to inhouse.

I am sure they have entertained the thought of going back to biglaw, but deep down, they know a Reed Smith resume isn't going to get any traction at market paying biglaw and with the several years spent languishing inhouse, they are likely to take a significant haircut IF they even get an offer.

LJL at inhouse paying this much. EDs at bank for the most part make 300-350k. At the VP level 250 requires specialization like tax or something more than random capital markets experience. IP will pay $250. Securities lawyers at that level will get $180-200k. In house lit will routinely start at $120 or $150. And before you say lit doesn’t do in house — the majority of inhouse jobs at banks are with litigation. The lit group dwarfs LOB counsel by 2 to 1 in size .

some industries like media and entertainment pay like $165k base for 10 years of experience.

Others like large cap pharma or tech $350k.

To make more than that I assume you have to be promoted to some kind of management position at a public company or do a regulatory niche at a big fund.

Around 250k all-in in low COL area. Transitioned to business side though. 8-4:30 hours with no evenings or weekends..

350k in a big city is pretty reasonable and consistent with headhunter calls, especially if you're willing to work harder.
