Biglaw California Mainstay Finally Announces Bonuses

January is still bonus season.

January may be drawing to a close, but that doesn’t mean Biglaw bonus season is over. Just on Friday, California Biglaw firm of Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati announced their bonus scale.

As expected, WSGR matched the scale set by Cravath way back in November, assuming they’ve hit their billable hours threshold of 1,950 bonus-eligible hours. The bonuses will be paid to associates on January 31st, and the very next day they’ll get their raises, commensurate with class year.
