If you HAVE to pick a Big Law firm to work for and can work at any one you want, where would you go? Would you just go to Wachtell to maximize $$$ and exit opportunities or do you go to the Austin office of a lifestyle firm?

Wachtell, easy. Then Evercore or Goldman ASAP. Being a lawyer sucks - the goal should be to maximize your chances of not being one anymore

Probably CR. How much worse can it actually be working there? Your life is gonna suck either way.

I mean it could actually be significantly fucking worse. But you’d be compensated way better than any other firm, do relatively cool work and maximize your exit options. So more suffering but also way more benefit per unit of suffering I think.

Banking can also suck but insignificant you less so than law and you get paid more with even more exit options

Knew some lawyers in Austin. They seemed miserable and they all ended up getting shit canned because IP lit died.
