In the tech startup world, founders (who generally hate lawyers) will be more likely to hire you for in-house legal work because they will trust that you "understand business."
It also seems like a good way for a wannabe MBA with mediocre work experience to hedge their bets, since they can do both law firm and finance/consulting OCI. |

If you split your 2L summer between a law firm and a consulting firm, that's a good hedge against getting no-offered. |
