Southeastern GCs' Pay Soars

A quick look at GC salaries across the Southeast might give the impression that nobody's getting any raises -- but don't be fooled. Though base pay and bonuses may be flat, the value of restricted stock awards has soared, according to the third annual GC South Compensation Survey of the Southeast's top in-house lawyers.
