Associate Bonus Watch: Mayer Brown's Non-NYC Offices

Mayer Brown already announced that New York bonuses would match the New York market. Last night, the firm announced its bonus structure for offices in Chicago, Palo Alto and Washington, D.C.

We are pleased to announce that the Firm’s bonus structure for work done in 2008 will be the same as it was for work done in 2007.

Yay?

We couldn’t find last year’s Mayer Brown bonus memos for offices outside of New York. But based on what peer firms paid out last year, it certainly doesn’t look like associates will be getting more than their counterparts in New York.

Still, given that we are living in a time of salary freezes and layoffs, anything that resembles 2007 is probably a good thing.

Read the full Mayer Brown memo after the jump.

We anticipate that the bonuses will be included in the March 6 paychecks. We are grateful for the significant contributions made in 2008 by our associates to the professional and financial success of the Firm, to its reputation as a great place to practice law, and to the personal camaraderie we enjoy.
