what exactly do you do? charters and resolutions and stuff? and that's it? i understand it's no deal work. is there any flexibility with the job? it's a great firm (v10), but i feel like there are a limited number of firms with this type of position. if i stay 3-4 years and get no deal work, am i going to be handicapped for job 2?

or good set-up for actually going in house (which i wouldn't mind)

I have never heard of a purely corporate governance position for an associate. I would not at all characterize that type of work as "deal work". If you want to position yourself to go in house, stick to M&A and/or finance work. You'll get plenty of "corporate governance" work on the side.

i've been advised that cravath, dp and sullivan all have purely corp gov rotations/associates.

not true?

apparently some of them mix with internal/sec/doj investigations. but not a lit role?

just trying to find out as much as possible. cause honestly, sounds like it'd be super easy. just as long as it's not career suicide there's no way i'd pick deal work instead.
