Salary talk

I work remote for a little under 90k a year. 2 years in Northeast. Licensed in 4 states up year. My coworkers are pretty ok, a little cattiness but that’s to be expected. I don’t hate the area of law, but it can’t be kind of boring.

I have heard the only way to make more money is to switch jobs. Our firm gives bonuses for exceeding the billables - min requirement is 1650 a year. Raises typically are like 5k a year. So basically now raise at all with the cost of living.

I am terrified of switching because I am terrified of having to do trials, I am very introverted. Also , I had so many horrible bosses (yelling at me in front of entire office, throwing things all over, etc) that I can’t do that again. Esp with a kid. But I also need more than a 5k raise a year.

I also am concerned that switching every couple of years will look bad to employers and rob me of the ability to hone my skills. I want to stay at a firm long term, and I would love to stay at this one. The bonuses are nice (20k if I bill over 2000). But I also feel like they have deliberately not been giving me cases since I will meet my yearly billables my next week and be in bonus territory.

What are your thoughts?
