For now, the position requires being onsite daily in Irvine (near airport).This counsel will be responsible for identifying employment & labor law issues, bringing them to resolution, and managing the fix (in conjunction with different internal teams & occasionally outside counsel). Pay is contingent upon years of experience doing this independently, but the company is targeting 2-8 (no more, no less).Perks of Company:I have placed 6/9 people in the legal department.
