Date: July 21st, 2016 9:11 PM Author: harsh institution I'm looking at NYC corporate/transactional. Are the firms in this range interchangeable? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3295392&forum_id=2#30993900) |

Date: July 21st, 2016 9:18 PM Author: pearly shrine At FF or SRZ?
I definitely know miserable people at both. |
|
Date: July 21st, 2016 9:22 PM Author: hot voyeur What does this even mean? I have many acquaintances at Cravath who constantly bitch about how horrible it is.
FF can't be that much worse than Cahill or Milbank. Also, FF is V50. |
|
Date: July 21st, 2016 9:27 PM Author: pearly shrine Everyone who went to Cravath from my school was a striver dork who wouldn't understand the concept of a personal life even if they had one. Almost none are my friends.
Milbank doesn't get bitched about as much, but that might just be a small sample size thing. Dudes at DPW/STB don't seem to hate their jobs and less than the dudes I know at Willkie and Cahill. |

Date: July 21st, 2016 9:17 PM Author: pearly shrine Can't remember who's in that group.
Schulte was the only one who used to be at the lower end of that group who does decent corporate work; Hughes Hubbard were the only decent litigators.
It's all the same kind of shitty. |
|
Date: July 21st, 2016 9:18 PM Author: harsh institution Yeah, probably all equally shitty. What can I do bro - beggars can't be choosers! (below-median @ T14 here) (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3295392&forum_id=2#30993979) |

Date: July 21st, 2016 9:23 PM Author: pearly shrine Consider yourself lucky if you get any kinda job, bro. Wouldn't worry too much about the particulars of each firm; if you have XO-average-level autism you won't have more than one (maybe) to choose from.

Date: July 21st, 2016 9:17 PM Author: harsh institution Full disclosure: I'm looking at Schulte, Bryan Cave, and Katten more in specific. As far as I know, Katten is a Chicago-based firm. Not sure how their reputation is in NYC. Schulte is based in NY. I know a good dude going to Bryan Cave - if he's any indication, the place seems pretty chill.

Date: July 21st, 2016 9:19 PM Author: motley senate hominid I'm at a firm a bit above that range that doesn't pay lockstep. I make 240k as a ninth year so that kinda sucks. I'm a recent lateral so I don't know for sure but I think the bonuses are shit too (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3295392&forum_id=2#30993989) |

Date: July 21st, 2016 9:57 PM Author: motley senate hominid I'm eligible after 2 years. I came over around 10 months ago. If I get fully integrated in the practice im. good. Guy who hired me tells me I'm doing well and that he likes me but we shall see
The pay is kind of a letdown but I'm a labor bro and I like the work, which often doesn't allow for yuge billing rates. Guy from my office went to a v10 but all he does is review labor contracts, handbooks etc for due diligence as part of mergers. I'm not interested in that. |

Date: July 22nd, 2016 10:56 PM Author: Histrionic Chartreuse State They're all shitters other than the boutiques like Patterson belknapp/munger that are probably more selective than most v10s. There's a lot of insecurity in the brand and a willingness to take garbage matters from big institutional clients that will force fee reductions down your throat. Also rainmakers tend to sop up the vast majority of the profits and there's very little chance that you can ever mane any real money.
