how do you know what the exit options are like? what are they? why aren't they similar to Manhattan DA exit options?

people get stuck there after 3 years, and it's tough to survive on that pay man. there's no city residency requirement, so you can move to jersey city like one dude i know.

It's still a job where genuine interest can give you a leg up over someone with better qualifications.

Supposedly a fair number of people leave after the initial commitment, and I assume some of them must find their way into private practice. Beyond that I don't know.

i know someone who took it over some pretty decent biglaw options. you can get good litigation experience right from the start there.

i dont want to give any personal details except that he/she was not my year (so lateraling to biglaw or midlaw looked like a viable future option at the time). the firms were below V10 but still pretty decent. the reasoning was that it gives real litigation experience as a 1st year and the cases are interesting/thinly staffed.

dont think he regrets it. it's a different path than biglaw though. it's good for people who enjoy litigating and don't require a set career track to follow.
