Job Contract what to look out for

Hi, I‘m reviewing a job contract for an associate level position. What should I look out for? What mistakes can I make? And where is there typically any room for negotiation? (This is for a large firm.)

Thanks.

“Julius was extremely helpful in breaking down the accounting concepts, especially allowing me the opportunity to walk through a question step by step on how the three financial statements are impacted across income, cash flow and balance sheet along with figuring out the mental math for it all. The concept for Equity Value to Enterprise value and bridging between the two were fairly straight forward. Along with the networking advice on reaching out to potential recruiters for Investment banking roles and how lateral recruitement is happening year end vs going into Q1 next year.”
