At least 3 days in the office. That position has been open for 6 months. Think they are only looking for a unicorn.

Doubt you’ll get WFH for V&E Dallas, it is a good group though. Great people

It looks like that group completely retooled their associate class or lost several mid levels for whatever reason. I’m looking at the numbers of attorneys and the practice group looks top heavy with lots of counsel and partners, and some senior associates but not many mid levels. So similar to the other comment, I assume they’re looking for a specific type of mid-level associate. The group does a lot of office leasing, which has cooled significantly post-pandemic.

Last I heard, V&E are four days in the office, but you get to pick either Monday or Friday WFH. So they are still flexible WFH.

I wasn’t sure which bowl to solicit advice from so hoping to catch a bite here. I’m currently in ID. Of course, I want OUT! My interests are L&E and corporate.

I figured this bowl being specific to Texas would understand importance of oil and gas industry.
