I had accepted an offer in Oregon with them, but backed out due to an amazing offer to stay at my current firm. I posted a similar request on here, if you want I can send you a DM with some comments I received from others via DM?
Most the responses I received were from CA office, and a few others but none in NY.
Also if you search "wood smith" in the Law bowl, I posted maybe 3 months back and you can see some of the public responses from people.
