I work at one of the larger firms and you're wrong. The payscale is basically set in stone, subject to minor variances for retention and a couple of specialist areas, basically. It's as I said - significantly better in Calgary than in Vancouver. I.e., a 3rd year Calgary associate is making about what a 5th year is in Vancouver, and Calgary has an actual bonus structure. The longer you stick around, the bigger the gap gets.
