We recognize that the talent of our attorneys combined with the commitment to clients and one another form the cornerstone of Pillsbury’s success. The firm is committed to providing our topperforming attorneys competitive, market-based compensation.
I am pleased to announce that the Board decided today to adopt the following salary schedule for associates and counsel based in the U.S. who are currently paid according to the existing schedule. (The firm will continue to monitor compensation for associates and counsel in markets outside the U.S.). Salary adjustments will be made prospectively, effective July 1, for the remainder of the year. Salary Class
Current Base Compensation
1st year 2nd year 3rd year 4th year 5th year 6th year (SA1) 7th year (SA2) Counsel
160,000 170,000 185,000 210,000 230,000 250,000 265,000 280,000
New Annual Base Compensation (pro-rated July 1) 180,000 190,000 210,000 235,000 260,000 280,000 300,000 315,000
Summer associates will be paid at the first year rate of $180,000 retroactive to date of hire. Attorneys whose compensation is outside of the standard schedule (such as special or senior counsel or staff attorneys) will be reviewed individually to determine whether an adjustment is warranted; those decisions will be made by Jeff Knight and JiJi Park, the ADC Chair and Vice Chair, in consultation with each Firm-wide Section Leader and Debbie Johnson, the Chief Human Resources Officer.
On behalf of the Board, I thank you for your commitment to the Firm and its clients, and for your many contributions to the success of our Firm.
