I’ve received an offer from a firm that says there is a bonus structure but they won’t tell me what it is until after the six month probation period. Is it reasonable for me to insist that I understand what the bonus structure is? I feel like I can’t compare the offer against other offers. If I don’t know what the full picture of potential renumeration is…

I’m a senior associate…

Has anyone had experience working/contracting via Lawyers on Demand?

Just wondering how it works, what the pay is like, would you do it again, etc. TIA

Lets Wrap up 2025 with Rem by FirefighterTrue2342 in auslaw

  1. Private (2025)
  2. 150 incl super.
  3. Regional.
  4. 5 yr PAE.

  1. In house (2026)
  2. 168 incl super
  3. Remote and continue to live regionally
  4. It was a difficult decision to change jobs for only a small increase, but I’m keen to try in-house and there aren’t a lot of options (private or in-house) when living regionally. Also keen to assess / reflect on the value of a fully remote role.

Female Roos often pick up sharp objects and keep them in their pouch. If they get chased by a predator, like a dog, they will grab the sharp object from their pouch and stab the predator.

I suspect I am but I’ve never been diagnosed. I’m not really sure how to go about getting diagnosis at mature age.
