Any thoughts on PE teams at Sidley, Goodwin, Latham, PW, Cooley, Dechert, Davis Polk. Looking for good mix of work (can be mid-market, doesn’t need to be market leading) but decent culture is a must (1800-2200 hour expectation range).

This range of firms will have wildly different sponsor clients and work (and thus, culture)

Based on your priorities, probably Dechert. Cooley doesn’t really do PE, and David Polk similarly is (and has been) trying to build a PE team. Others are top tier and will be sweat-shopy.

A2 how so?

Does anyone know if this is normal? I joined a vault 100 firm in September last year. The firm put me on tier 7. In January I had the associate review and everything was normal. After a couple of weeks, I got the call from the hiring partner telling my bonus and new salary (because of the firm-wide salary increase). I realized I still get paid as a 7 year associate. The partner said because I joined the firm later in the year, it’s normal not to advance in the next year. Is it? Thanks!

The difference in price is substantial – 2.5k for the traditional course vs 6k for the extended one. Any thoughts/recommendations on which one I should take?
