Another
Biglaw
firm
has
joined
the
bonus
train,
and
this
time
it’s
Skadden!
The
top
tier
law
firm
reported
$3,669,042,000
gross
revenue
in
2024
gross
revenue
and
profits
per
equity
partner
of
$6,049,000
according
to
the
most
recent
Am
Law
100.
When
you’re
making
that
much
cash,
its
easy
to
spread
the
wealth
around!
Here’s
the
scale:
All
of
the
firm’s
United
States
associates
can
expect
the
bonus
money
to
be
paid
on
December
15th.
That
still
gives
you
enough
time
to
buy
some
nice
Subway
gift
cards
as
stocking
stuffers
before
the
holidays
roll
around.
If
you
aren’t
interested
in
going
the
sandwich
route,
maybe
you
can
buy
them
a
nonfiction
book
from
our
nicely
curated
list
instead?
Whether
it’s
food
for
thought
or
food
for
food,
it
should
be
the
thought
that
counts
at
the
end
of
the
day.
We
