<prompt> Human: First, Im not sure if this is the best place to post this, so I apologize if it is not.Anyway, Im 28, and I am an international private-client tax lawyer in the U.S. Currently, I work for a widely-recognized in my city international private-client boutique law firm and make about 130k with bonus. That will go up 15-20k each year, and each year I can expect a bonus of the same amount. Partnership track should be another 6-7 years, and earning capacity would be much more after that. Im pretty much guaranteed to make partner at my Firm, and later-in-life earning capacity there I would estimate to be at 500-700k per year.Because I have great experience, I constantly get hit up by legal recruiters. I finally decided to check out a BIGLAW job which I was certain I would be offered if I applied for, and, sure enough, I got the offer. Base salary is 200k and estimated bonus is 50k. Base would go up 15k yearly, and bonus would be estimated to be the same. If I made partner at this BIGLAW firm someday, a realistic estimation of earning capacity would be 1MM-2MM per year depending upon the quality of the book of business I am able to develop.The caveat: my current firm, while having an amazing reputation, is chill as hell. My required billables are 1650, although I usually bill 1750. The guys at the Global Private Client Group at BIGLAW firm international tax department are billing in the 2500 hours per year range. To me, thats insane. I want to have a family someday, and Im recently engaged.Im inclined to say no to the job offer, especially because Im content with my current job, although I know I could make much more money elsewhere, and big money is hard to turn down. Also, I have no debt, but I dont own any assets at all.What Im really looking for is to hear from attorneys who have worked in BIGLAW and their experiences there. I want to know about quality of life and anything and everything else you think is relevant to discuss here. Really, I want someone to tell me that I absolutely shouldnt take this job!Any advice insight regarding your life in BIGLAW andor people in other professions but who made a move under similar circumstances would be greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance.  <response>: I think your question is better suited to a subreddit for lawyers, as your question isnt really looking for financial advice per se
