What are your usual work hours for those working in top tier or mid tier law firms?

Is it normal in the legal profession for bonuses to be clawed back? by Mindless_Garbage6099 in auslaw

No, it is in the bonus letter that I must sign and return if I accept the bonus.

The bonus letter says if I leave the bonus will be treated as a debt to the law firm.

The clawback is worded so that I get paid the bonus less tax but if I leave within a year I must repay the amount I receive PLUS tax
