And then gradually people started admitting that you rarely work a full day, that the pay is great, etc. And people who switched out of biglaw didn't land in a more chill situation, missed the pay, etc.
Am I reading this right? Was all that complaining justified? Or were the complainers just bitchass millennials who didn't want to lift a finger?

My understanding is that biglaw post-2008 is different from biglaw pre-2008- we never got as busy as people were in 2007
The bad part of the job is the limited control - if you have a busy a month is largely out of your hands - whether you're working this weekend is largely out of your hands - etc.
But, I can't imagine it is that much better in house making 1/3rds as much
