I dunno but just saw a blurb about new EEOC charges against companies offering abortion only travel. So yet another thing that’s gonna have to make the rounds before we know what to do. My suggestion has always been to give people a set travel amount and let them use it regardless of the medical issue.

All the partners at my firm are liberal so they all hate it

What firm are you at?

In my experience, work has been a lot like work before the ruling.

That’s good to know. Can I ask if you are male or female?

Also, which firm are you at? Thank you!

I had a summer associate tell me how excited he was about Dobbs on the day that it was handed down because I’m a generic looking white guy he assumed I was a FedSoc goon who would also be excited about the Supreme Court stripping away a right.

Hi, where or what types of companies should sophomores & juniors apply for next summer (2022) to recruit for IB the following summer (2023)? This summer BBs wrapped up SA IB recruitment, EBs even earlier, and a fair amount of my friends missed out big time.

Also, if a sophomore or junior doesn’t get a finance-related summer internship (I.e tech) and aims for an IB SA or FT position, is it harder to break in?

Appreciate any advice and insight, thank you.

He’s leaning transactional, but also open to litigation. Any insights/advice on these firms in the TX market? Any to avoid?
