Skaddenfreude: The King & Spalding Memo

Here’s the King & Spalding memo. As our source points out, “King & Spalding matched — but NYC only, which leaves an 8th-year in their Atlanta office making less than a 1st-year in their NY office.”
Correction/Update: This is actually a disputed matter. According to this comment, a first-year in New York ($160K) makes more than a sixth-year in Atlanta ($155K), but not an eighth-year ($170K). The point remains, however, that K&S’s New York associates earn significantly more than their colleagues at the Atlanta mother ship.
