To follow up on our earlier post, as well as this post from before the holiday, here are more confirmed pay raise announcements not previously mentioned in these pages:
1. Munger Tolles & Olson: They’ve raised to the $160K scale, according to The Recorder.
(The same article also mentions Pillsbury Winthrop going to $160K in its California offices; we previously reported that news before the holiday.)
2. Winston & Strawn: We previously posted about their raising salaries in their Washington office. But they have also gone to $160,000 in their home office in Chicago, according to the Chicago Daily Law Bulletin (subscription).
3. Wachtell Lipton Rosen & Katz: They now pay $165,000 for first years. We’re not sure of what they pay higher up the ladder, but we’re looking into it.
