Anyone have any intel on Willkie’s exec comp group? Looks like they (and PW, Latham and Kirkland) are always hiring. I’ve heard that the corporate group is more chill and I’m wondering if that is the case for exec comp too.

Willkie lost some associates to McDermott and recently hired away one partner from them as a counsel. I don't get the sense that they're always hiring like the others.

Know someone who was there almost 10 years ago and heard associate hours were ridiculously high and terrible personalities. My friend left pre-COVID so maybe things have changed.
