Dirty LAWndry reader, “Mark”, wants to share his experience at his new job.

“I got laid off from BigLaw in Philly a few months ago. I was working in the REIT department for a little over a year right after law school. Recently, I got hired by a very small real estate company in Norristown. I applied for and accepted the job because it seemed like no one else was hiring and I needed more money than what unemployment compensation provides. However, this company is owned by a shady lawyer/realtor and his wife. Two weeks after I started working, I was told that he was going to decrease my pay from $30 hourly to $10 hourly. Yes, 10 freaking dollars an hour. They expect me to go to court to represent the company and also do all the transactional work for freaking 10 dollars an hour. Then he basically said that I should just be grateful for the experience that I wouldn’t have received at BigLaw. I don’t give a damn about experience at this point. The worst part about it is that I will be making a little bit more than what I received on unemployment. Needless to say, I am still job searching.”
