Archaea Intervention Needed

has never been divorced. I know about fifty in different large firms and most have two divorces. It's a horrible lifestyle and the pressure to generate fees is immense.

Associates at big firms start at $215k. It can be a great life.

Being at a big firm is not a great life. 80 hour weeks, and working to protect
